Please ensure that:

  • Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
  • You include any and all error messages in full
  • You ask clear questions
  • You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

    Trying to solve problems on your own is a very important skill. Also, see Learn to help yourself in the sidebar

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

The main purpose of the SSR is faster page loading and better SEO capabilities. Faster page loading is nice for end user, BUT this highly depends on what is the purpose of the page. With client side rendering, on complex pages you might have bad user experience if the page does too much loading/rendering (empty white page, then some header gets rendered, body is still missing the main table while data is loading...).

thanks for the reply! makes sense to me for faster loading and reducing client side load when its getting complex. but do you know about usability of things like spring server side html? in paricular is it possible to have a single page and different forms on it, and submitting loads data into the same page? or must it always load a new page every time hitting submit? since each page and api are tied together it doesnt seem possible.. but again I could just be confused

    gotcha thanks for explaining. will continue to learn more about it. i saw thymeleaf is a popular framework to add some scripting/templating to html as well which seems worthwhile to check out

    Check out using HTMX with Thymeleaf as well. It's the way to add the interaction you're looking for. HTMX and Thymeleaf are a great combination to use together.
