Description

Description

Doc to explicitly cover the full lifecycle of a request, walking through everything that can happen from start to finish.

Something like:

  • where it enters (the entry point, if server.ts exists)
  • where it goes next (global request middleware)
  • the custom render handler
  • server routes
  • server route middleware
  • and how the server routes (and their middleware) end up delegating to SSR

Research direction

Start by tracing the request from the entry point, including server.ts if it exists, through global request middleware, the custom render handler, server routes, and server route middleware. Follow how those routes and middleware delegate to SSR, and document the complete start-to-finish lifecycle when each transition is accounted for.
