Take your Vue 3 SSR app to the next level with advanced features for performance and discoverability.

Code Splitting and Lazy Loading

Use dynamic imports to split your code and load components only when needed.

// router.js
const About = () => import('./pages/About.vue')
const routes = [{ path: '/about', component: About }]

Handling Assets and CSS

• Vite handles static assets and CSS out of the box.
• For critical CSS, consider inlining styles in SSR HTML.
• Use <link rel="preload"> for important assets.

SEO and Meta Tags

Use vue-meta or @vueuse/head to manage meta tags and improve SEO.

import { createHead } from '@vueuse/head'
const head = createHead()
app.use(head)

In your components:

import { useHead } from '@vueuse/head'
useHead({
  title: 'My Page',
  meta: [{ name: 'description', content: 'This is my page.' }],
})

Best Practices

• Use code splitting for faster initial loads
• Optimize images and assets
• Set meta tags for every route
• Test your SSR output with Google and social media tools
