Should your React web application prioritize Server-Side Rendering (SSR) and React Server Components, or an offline-first Progressive Web App (PWA) architecture backed by Service Workers and IndexedDB/SQLite WASM? With modern Next.js 16 and React 19, you can combine both.
Hybrid SSR + Offline-First PWA Architecture
- Public Marketing, Docs & Marketplace Routes (SSR/ISR): Render full semantic HTML and JSON-LD on the server for instant Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and search-engine indexing.
- Authenticated Workspace & Field-App Routes (Offline-First PWA): Precache application shells with Serwist (Configuring Serwist with Next.js 16 & React 19) and persist user documents locally in OPFS/IndexedDB (Local-First Offline AI Web Apps).
