Try prerender [1]. We use it in production with backbone. This combined with keeping the most content not-client-rendered has alleviated most of our issues. In the long-term I'd love to see a web framework that uses react on the server-side, kind of like how rendr uses backbone on the server-side [2]. Seems to make sense because react works against a virtual DOM, so it would allow you to avoid the hacky ways of working with an actual DOM in node. 1: https://github.com/prerender/prerender https://github.com/prerender/prerender 2: https://github.com/airbnb/rendr https://github.com/airbnb/rendr
