AngularJS - server-side rendering

tillda picture tillda · Apr 26, 2013 · Viewed 59k times · Source

As you may know, AirBnb opensourced Rendr (http://nerds.airbnb.com/weve-open-sourced-rendr) which should enable server-side rendering of Backbone apps. This is cool, because one can run the first "iteration" of template rendering on the server and the client gets fully rendered HTML document plus the whole JS app. It greatly reduces time-to-display and can get us rid of other server-side templating systems.

So, have someone managed to render AngularJS with jsdom or ZombieJS? These dom/browser emulations on Node.js should in theory be enough for simple server-side Angular templating, but results I found googling it were not very conclusive.

Update from author of that repo: that was about 6 years ago (at the time of this edit). At this point, people should probably be using https://angular.io/guide/universal or just https://prerender.io/
