⚖️ Rendering Patterns Comparison
🎯 When to Use Each Pattern?
Choose CSR when:
- Building interactive dashboards
- SEO is not critical
- Users are authenticated
- Heavy client-side logic
Choose SSR when:
- SEO is crucial
- Content changes frequently
- Personalized content
- Social media sharing
Choose SSG when:
- Content is mostly static
- Performance is priority
- High traffic expected
- Cost optimization needed
