SSG (Static Site Generation)

A rendering strategy where all HTML is generated at build time and served as static files — with no server processing per request.

SSG produces the fastest TTFB and LCP of any rendering strategy because static files can be served directly from a CDN with no server processing. Frameworks supporting SSG include Next.js, Gatsby, Astro, Eleventy, and Hugo. The trade-off is that content updates require a rebuild and redeploy, making SSG less suitable for highly dynamic content.
