The Universality of Static Sites
summary
Claims that React components can be pre-rendered at build time into real HTML using a React-to-HTML Webpack plugin and later generalized as a static site generator webpack plugin. Example: SEEK builds universal components, renders them to static HTML, uploads to S3 and injects into a legacy .NET site. Result: usable first paints instead of blank screens, a static fallback build that serves during outages, and a living style guide — all shipping in production and proving the approach works.
