Can't agree in the SPA part while SPA's were pretty popular when they came but now I guess people are shifting towards SSG and SSR for better performance perks

I disagree, as an architect, it all depends on the user. In a personalized dashboard should be built with SPA.
A blogging site should use SSR for SEO benefits.
As services become more personalized, SPA becomes important.

ohh but can't the same be achieved with an SSG or SSR too I wonder 🤔

Have fun experiencing a tool such as Gmail in a multi-page application.

SSR is not a replacement for SPA's. SSR tools are used to make SPA's search engine friendly ie. Angular Universal or Gatsby/Express for React. However, there are many real world use cases for SPA's ie. a user focussed web app that needs to be fast and easy to load. Thus, using SSR for search engine bots and other crawlers, allows the use of SPA's while also being search friendly. Of course, as Google and other search engines increase the abilities of their WRS, we can expect JS to be more easily parsed by them. I do not think SPA's are a thing of the past. These have many use cases, and people should not be afraid of them because of SEO issues.

I recommend increasing the size of the headlines in the text (to at least the same size as the "The future of web development" headline). It was very hard to get an overview/skim the article.

My only issue is there is some misinformation and you are trying to push some admin templates...

It’s really good. Can I translate it into Chinese and let more web developers learn it?

Hey, nice article!

I have one observation regarding categorizing GitHub as a single-page application. I don't think that is the case.

GitHub mostly works with JavaScript disabled, and the HTML of GitHub's pages is all rendered on the server-side.

Cheers!

Hello NĂ­colas Iensen,

Thanks for your appreciation.
The latest update of GitHub uses JavaScript, inspect it in browser to confirm. It works like SPA.

Stay Safe🙏

I am surprised this type of article got so much comments and love. It provided very low value and seemed like an ad. I am not trying to be mean or discouraging but this seems like an article written by some novice SEO person who just rounded up a few trends to help push admin templates.

Thanks for the article :)

You wrong about the MEAN stack definition.
It's a acronym for:

  • M = MongoDB
  • E = Express (web framework for node)
  • A = Angular
  • N = NodeJS

Nice article. Although, I believe ReactJs is a library, not a framework. This is one of the many reasons it is so popular, being closer to Vanilla JavaScript. :)
