Listening to this podcast episode about SSR in React (they mention Meteor and Apollo a few times), makes me think there still is a big opportunity for Meteor here as well.
I don’t know if it’s possible to make SSR more plug and play, but just fixing some of the gotchas should already go a long way I think. Looking at how Ben aced the dynamic imports, it should be possible to make this a better dev experience as well. You already see community efforts like this package trying to achieve the same thing.
I have the feeling the JS community is still looking for a go-to solution for this, and out of the box SSR could be a USP that makes a lot of sense for Meteor.
