Running Intertia Django with SSR

[lewismunene020]

I have recently been exploring inertiajs.

It's pretty good but there isnot enough context on how to run it in ssr mode .

Laravel has the commands for php artisan inertia:start-ssr at the start Command(https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia-laravel/blob/2.x/src/Commands/StartSsr.php) .

Can we have such similar command for django to start ssr server that can be used for bundling the application ?

Thank You.

Basically, If I have to guess, In SSR mode, There is a node process that runs as proxy. IMO, Inertia + Django is by default hybrid because the props are fetched as part of the HTML page itself, so it's the middle ground. And most apps don't need SSR. If you do need it, I think you are better to go with next.js/remix

We could definitely look into making this easier. In Inertia Rails, we advise running the SSR build directly through vite. I don't use SSR myself so I haven't spent much time on it, but I can see if I can set some time aside to make it more user friendly.

Is deployment/starting the build the biggest challenge?
