To clear up some confusion, I believe people are using the terms SSR and hydration interchangeably. Hydration is a new technology that uses SSR and then adds reactivity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydration_(web_development)

The server code will use the framework to handle SSR and hydration. Meaning that all you have to do is write the frontend and you get SSR for free.

If I'm not mistaken, GWT did hydration way back in 2010.
