If you think of “server side rendering”, you might be assuming that it requires runtime Node.js hosting (which is usually paid). But that’s not the case — my blog is statically generated during deployment. Like Jekyll. So the point of the post is to show why it’s not a contradiction. In modern tools, “static” is often an output mode of “server” frameworks rather than a separate category of tools.

Because that is what SSR mean. Not to be confused with SSG which is the case for your blog.
Sure. I’m just trying to answer the parent’s question? I wasn’t the one to bring “SSR” into the conversation.
