Not yet, Lit has support for SSR in prerelease and we've experimented with supporting it. Once it's ready it will be included. In the meantime you can of course use web components (with any framework) like you normally would, just without SSR.

Tracking issue for Lit support: https://github.com/snowpackjs/astro/issues/109

Very cool! Yeah I wish SSR was more of a thing in the web component world. Someday soon hopefully!

Amusing to me to see the return to concepts that the dynamic web started with in the form of CGI, mod_perl, Cold Fusion, PHP, ASP.NET and all that. It’s the same, but different. Next we’ll be on to multi-tiered caching.

What’s the difference conceptually between islands and e.g. Hole-punching in Varnish? The result in each case seems to be a site that is mostly static with some dynamic portions.
