What Is Server-Side Rendering (SSR)?

Server-side rendering generates a page's complete HTML on the server before sending it to the browser, so crawlers can read content without running JavaScript.

SSR is generally the safer default for SEO-critical pages because it removes the dependency on a crawler successfully executing client-side JavaScript at all.
