SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Server-side rendering with hydration for Angular improves initial load performance and SEO by rendering pages on the server and hydrating on the client, while safely handling browser-only APIs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Add SSR to an existing Angular project using ng add @angular/ssr to generate server and browser builds.
  • Configure route rendering modes (Prerender, Server, Client) to optimize static content and dynamic content.
  • Implement hydration strategies, incremental hydration, and safe browser API usage in a universal app.
  • Prerender static routes for faster first paint and better SEO.
  • Handle browser-specific code safely on the server and during hydration.

Quick Start

Run ng add @angular/ssr in your Angular project to enable SSR and generate server and browser builds.

What are the rendering modes for Angular SSR routes?

Angular SSR supports Prerender, Server, and Client rendering modes. You can configure these route rendering modes to optimize static content for faster first paint and handle dynamic content efficiently.

Does Angular server-side rendering support hydration?

Yes, Angular server-side rendering supports hydration. You can implement hydration strategies and incremental hydration to reuse existing DOM nodes on the client, improving initial load performance and SEO.

How do I safely use browser-only APIs during Angular server rendering?

When using Angular server rendering, you must handle browser-specific code safely to avoid errors on the server. Configure safe browser API usage and conditional checks to ensure universal app compatibility during hydration.

What Angular version is required for SSR and hydration configuration?

Configuring Angular SSR and hydration strategies applies to Angular v20+ projects. This version integration supports defining server and client render modes alongside Angular tooling for universal apps.
