npm run build with prerender

$ grep -i welcome index.html

Would be nice if this tool would facilitate a pre-render IIUC.

Would be good at least to learn how to do it the canonical way.

What does prerender mean? I don't quite understand.
If you mean server rendering, there are no plans to support it in this tool.

I’m not sure what you meant exactly so I’ll close, but feel free to elaborate.
Thanks!

Yes, I mean "server rendering" which I think some people refer to is a "isomorphic" app? I think this is generally pretty crucial feature to a Website that intend to load fast and by picked up by crawlers.

I even went so far as an silly example: https://jsfiddle.net/dfumm9p9/

I believe README explicitly mentions this. We don't intend to support server rendering with this tool for numerous reasons (mostly that it imposes a lot more configuration and decisions than we are willing to support at this point). This tool is not the way to create React apps, it's just one possible way. You might be better served by tools listed as "alternatives" in README.
