Believe it or not, there are other server-side languages apart from node. Without Node, you can't SSR in any of those frameworks, so i don't know how that changes my point >This is the point that makes the least sense.

But you miss out on performance... without SSR you are bypassing the html parser and just abusing JS to manipulate the DOM. > Duplicate of #1. smh If you insist. > The API doesn't provide a whole lot. That's why a lot of people are using Lit. Oh no, a js library. Your other points aren't even worth responding to.
