I would recommend pre-building html markup as much as possible for performance boost and hydrate on the client for dynamic content, instead of going the SSR route. Obviously this may not be applicable for all use cases though.

Can you elaborate on your recommendation not to go SSR? Seems there are pretty well understood pros and cons to full SSR vs. static prerendered pages. The "right" choice depends on your app.
