SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides comprehensive guidance on SolidJS's rendering capabilities, covering both client-side mounting and various server-side rendering (SSR) strategies to optimize web application performance and user experience.

Core Features & Use Cases

Client-Side Rendering: Learn how to mount SolidJS applications to the DOM using render().
Server-Side Rendering: Understand and implement hydrate(), renderToString(), renderToStringAsync(), and renderToStream() for efficient server rendering.
Hydration & Streaming: Optimize initial load times and perceived performance with hydration and progressive rendering.
Server Detection: Utilize isServer and DEV constants for platform-specific or development-only logic.

Quick Start

Use the solid-core-rendering-ssr skill to understand how to render a SolidJS app on the server.

FAQPage Schema

How do I render a SolidJS app on the server?▼

To render a SolidJS app on the server, use renderToString() for synchronous output or renderToStringAsync() to handle asynchronous data fetching before generating the final HTML string.

What is the difference between hydrate and render in SolidJS?▼

render() mounts a SolidJS application on the client, while hydrate() attaches event listeners to server-rendered HTML, enabling interactivity without discarding the existing DOM structure.

When should I use renderToStream instead of renderToString in SolidJS?▼

Use renderToStream for progressive rendering to send HTML chunks to the browser as they become ready, improving perceived performance compared to waiting for renderToString to complete.

How do I avoid hydration mismatches in SolidJS SSR?▼

Avoid hydration mismatches by ensuring server and client output match exactly, handling asynchronous data consistently, and using the isServer constant for platform-specific rendering logic.

Can I check for server environment in SolidJS components?▼

Yes, use the isServer constant to detect the server environment for platform-specific logic, and the DEV constant to execute development-only checks during rendering.
