Server side rendering with React and Express

Server-side rendering allows developers to pre-populate a web page with custom user data directly on the server . It is generally faster to make all the requests within a server than making extra browser-to-server round-trips for them. This is what developers used to do before client-side rendering.

If you right click -> View Source , you’ll see exactly what the server sent. But if you right click -> inspect element and look at the html with your dev tools, you’ll see everything as it is now, ie, after a full client side render.
