Been going down this path recently via Svelte & SvelteKit: It's been really fun seeing the network responses of the first load being full HTML for any page (SSR), with JS responses handling transitions in between pages (CSR).
I've even managed to get my SVG image generator to run server-side first before passing over, with any changes handled client-side & with URL changes. Refreshing with the changed parameters renders the newer SVG. :)
