What is @vue/compiler-ssr?
The @vue/compiler-ssr package is part of the Vue.js framework and is responsible for compiling Vue components into server-side renderable code. It is used in server-side rendering (SSR) applications to pre-render Vue components on the server before sending them to the client. This can improve performance and SEO for Vue.js applications.
What are @vue/compiler-ssr's main functionalities?
Compiling Vue components for SSR
This feature allows you to compile Vue.js templates into render functions that can be used on the server. The code sample demonstrates how to compile a simple Vue template into a server-renderable format.
const { compile } = require('@vue/compiler-ssr');
const template = `<div>{{ message }}</div>`;
const { code } = compile(template);
console.log(code);
Optimizing template compilation for SSR
The package provides options to optimize the compilation process for server-side rendering. The code sample shows how to enable SSR-specific optimizations during the compilation of a Vue template.
const { compile } = require('@vue/compiler-ssr');
const template = `<div>{{ message }}</div>`;
const { code } = compile(template, { optimizeSSR: true });
console.log(code);
Other packages similar to @vue/compiler-ssr
react-dom/server
This package is part of the React library and provides server-side rendering capabilities for React components. It is similar to @vue/compiler-ssr in that it allows components to be rendered to HTML on the server, but it is specific to React instead of Vue.
angular/platform-server
Angular's platform-server package provides tools for server-side rendering of Angular applications. Like @vue/compiler-ssr, it enables pre-rendering of application views on the server for performance and SEO benefits, but it is designed for use with Angular applications.
svelte
Svelte is a compiler that converts Svelte components into efficient JavaScript code that runs on the client or server. While not a direct equivalent to @vue/compiler-ssr, Svelte offers server-side rendering capabilities as part of its compilation process, similar to how Vue components can be pre-rendered on the server.
