Static Site Generation is Awesome
summary
Claims that static site generation removes indexing and UX problems and shows it with Nuxt (captioned "next") generating one index.html per route, using asyncData to prefetch 100 posts and a generate hook to create dynamic routes, then deploying to Netlify and serving from a CDN. Demo proves static HTML with hard‑coded meta tags and hydration yielding a full SPA while the site still works with JS disabled. Notes Googlebot runs Chrome 41 and can defer indexing up to a week and cites Jekyll handling millions and ~$250M donations with ~99.999997% uptime.
