Welcome back to Back to the Basics — our Angular Air series focused on the fundamentals that actually matter.
In this episode, we’re joined by Adam Plumer to break down one of the most misunderstood areas of modern Angular development:
SSR, hydration, and partial hydration.
What do these terms actually mean?
Why do they exist?
And how do they impact performance, SEO, and user experience in real-world Angular apps?
We’re cutting through the buzzwords and getting back to first principles.
If you’ve ever nodded along in a conversation about hydration but secretly thought, “Wait… what?” — this one’s for you.
