I love that we're rediscovering server side rendering. It's impressive to me how quickly the industry moved away from it as the default and is now an interesting, new technique to many.

Except this has nothing to do with Server side rendering.

  What makes you say this? A server is rendering/outputting HTML as output from a GitHub action that builds via Deno. Did you think your browser was assembling the HTML?

    By that logic, a static site generator is "Server Side Rendering".

      Rendered once, yeah. Not sure why you’re splitting hairs when the client still isn’t doing the work.

        If I were really splitting hairs, I'd say that the "rendering" (i.e, transforming the encoded data into its visual representation) can only happen in the client. But anyway, regardless of what you want to call it: this whole thing is just a silly exercise to get a bunch of XML and transform into (X)HTML. If it works for them... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
