Build SSR bundle in production + Hatchbox deployment guide#6
Merged
Conversation
Flip vite_ruby's ssrBuildEnabled to true so production deploys produce public/vite-ssr/ssr.js. Without this, the Inertia Rails renderer silently falls back to client-only rendering, leaving crawlers and LLM agents with an empty <div id="app"> on public pages.

Quick reference covering cluster setup, env vars (RAILS_MASTER_KEY, APP_HOST), database provisioning, domain config, the SSR Node process (bin/vite ssr on the web role), the Solid Queue jobs process (bin/jobs on the worker role), and post-deploy verification steps.
