Question: Making part of the app static

[aviramga]

Hi,

We are in the process of re-building our homepage and landing pages infrastructure and considering NextJS as a prime candidate. I few questions came up which I could find an answer in google and I was hoping for your help.

1. Is it possible to make part of the project static and part SSR?
2. How fast is the build process? One of our key issues right now is that middleman takes almost 20 minutes building all the pages (we have hundreds of landing pages)
3. When will V4 are planned to be out? We know that there has been great improvements with React16 and would really hate to miss on utilizing its full SSR power.
4. Will V4 include any breaking changes? (I know that React16 wouldn't)

Thanks!!!!!

Update 29 december 2019:

You can achieve hybrid static/dynamic applications with Next.js: https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/pages

This is currently not possible (at least with the client side rendering) you either have a static or a dynamic app 😄

It highly depends, @arunoda might have some insights 👍

We're planning to release it very soon, we've waited a few days to make sure there are no issues 👍

Will V4 include any breaking changes? (I know that React16 wouldn't)

Yes and no, we will only support React 16 going forward 👌 React 15 won't work with v4

Thanks @timneutkens !!!

What do you mean its not possible with the client side rendering? I only want to be able to render part of the site with SSR, and generate another part staticly. I think I read in the docs that anything under the static directory will be generated in the build process and the rest will be accessible via SSR
