The Jedi Path to Angular Universal
summary
Angular Universal (server-side rendering for Angular) is presented as a way to make content visible sooner and improve SEO/social previews, but it increases CPU and engineering cost. The talk covers using ngExpressEngine, a server module, a TypeScript/webpack server build and absolute URLs, shows measurements where server-rendered HTML appears earlier though total and time-to-interactive can be slower (example server ~5.0s vs client ~4.2s; TTI ~4.3s vs ~3.8s), and describes a todolist demo where simple apps work but complex apps require fixes for incompatible libraries and unresolved promise data.
