From @mojombo :
SSR is priority number one for v2. In the meantime, a number of users use Next.js as a client that talks GraphQL to the Redwood backend. It works very well!
Stay tuned!
Edit: Based on a new approach to semantic versioning and that " Major Version Numbers are Not Sacred", v2 is now not actually v2.
See Tom’s post on semantic versioning here: Major Version Numbers are Not Sacred
That said, the team is making progress on several new what we think will be calling “render modes”.
One of these is cell pre-rendering at build time: Cell prerendering + Prerender routes with parameters by Tobbe · Pull Request #5600 · redwoodjs/redwood · GitHub .
@Danny and @Tobbe can update the status of the other efforts better than I can.

From what I can gather on Discord channel, it looks like esbuild is already in the Redwood ecosystem as part of the core package, which makes sense because builds and dev updates appear to r…
TL;DR? We’re actively working on it, but it’s still a ways off. It’s a huge change that touches on most parts of the framework.
