Easy Integration Guide

Welcome to your first step with Prerender! Following this simplified guide, you should be able to set up Prerender quickly.

 1. Integrating Prerender

Prerender is designed to work seamlessly with your website, regardless of the frontend framework you're using. It's a server-side component, which means it works with the static files (like HTML, JS, CSS) that your website serves.

Select the integration that suits you best: Your JavaScript application may be served in various ways, such as a Node.js (Express.js) server, Apache, NGINX, Java Spring, IIS, or even cached by a CDN like Cloudflare. The first step is to identify your backend's middleware or configuration.

Best practice
Prerender works best when integrated into your system as close to the visitor as possible. Try to set it up at your CDN or reverse proxy if available. Otherwise, integrate Prerender into your web server.  

Set up Prerender: Once you've identified your middleware or configuration, you'll need to set up Prerender. This involves adding a token or snippet of code to your site. Don't worry. We've made this process super straightforward. You can find the specific installation instructions for your backend here.

2. Verifying your installation

Once you've integrated Prerender, verifying your installation is important to ensure everything works as expected. Here’s a detailed guide on testing your setup.
