Introduction

Modern web development depends, to a large extent, on rendering techniques that increase performance, search engine optimization (SEO), and dynamic content management. This article digs deeper into rendering techniques in the context of Next.js, React, and Gatsby. It gives detailed insight into how developers can leverage frameworks to build superior web applications.

Disadvantages: SEO issues include slow first render in that the browser must download, process, and execute JavaScript.
