EXTREME SERVER SIDE RENDERING

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Extreme Server Side Rendering (XSSR) is a technique where the server continuously streams HTML updates to the client, creating dynamic web pages without JavaScript. This post demonstrates how to use XSSR with a Flappy Bird clone, where the game logic runs entirely on the server, updating the client-side display with constantly streamed CSS. While XSSR has acceptable performance and bandwidth usage, it suffers from latency issues due to server round trips for every user interaction.
