Introduction to React Server Components

Last quarter, our team discovered the power of React Server Components (RSC) when we were tasked with optimizing the performance of our e-commerce application. We were handling over 10 million requests per day, and our client-side rendering approach was starting to show its limitations. After conducting thorough research and experimentation, we decided to adopt RSC for our critical pages. Here's what I learned when implementing RSC and how it compares to traditional client components.

What are React Server Components?

React Server Components are a new way of building React applications that allows you to render components on the server. This approach provides several benefits, including improved SEO, faster page loads, and better support for modern web features like streaming and suspense. When I first tried RSC, it broke because I didn't configure the server properly. The error message was Error: Unable to resolve server component. After debugging, I realized that I needed to set up a server-side renderer and configure the component to use it.

When to Use React Server Components
