Nuxt SSR vs SPA: what are the trade-offs for performance and SEO?
Answer
**SSR** renders HTML on the server, improving first paint and SEO for content-heavy pages.
**SPA** renders mostly on the client, which can be simpler but may need extra work for SEO and initial load.
**Trade-offs:**
- SSR: more server complexity, hydration cost
- SPA: potentially slower initial content, but simpler infrastructure
In practice, use SSR/SSG for SEO pages and SPA behavior for app-like interactions.
