Questions tagged [prerender]

The Prerender.io middleware that you install on your server will check each request to see if it's a request from a crawler.

If it is a request from a crawler, the middleware will send a request to Prerender.io for the static HTML of that page. If not, the request will continue on to your normal server routes. The crawler never knows that you are using Prerender.io since the response always goes through your server.
