I feel that one especially. I am working on a very similar project and it is an undertaking. The incentive is worth it though. Server rendering configuration and coordination is hard. It is really appealing to have a solution that takes care of those details. I was never one for starters but trying to explain how to get the perfect SSR setup. The problem is there is no one size fits all solution but if we can narrow it down to a couple simple decisions it is hugely beneficial.
Yeah, writing code that is both flexible enough for in-the-wild edge-cases and simple enough for normal use is damn hard.
It sounds like you have wrestled with the same issues, in particular, the ability to deploy to serverless environments.
I always steered clear of SSR as of dubious worth compared to increased complexity, but then I found Sapper and found I was gaining the simplicity of everything being self-contained, and the SSR benefits.
I'm looking forward to trying out what you've got going for Solid SSR.
Working on an article covering AlpineJS right now. Solid is up next. Good timing with the 1.0 release.

@ryansolid , I'm getting started on the SolidJS article.
Thinking about doing a modest question-and-answer with you.
Let me know if you are interested.
Yeah I'd be down to Q&A style. If possible send me a DM on Twitter or Discord.
