Why are people slapping Static Site Generators to all the problems?
Imagine you build an e-commerce website that has ten thousands of products, that can be accessed by example.com/products/{product-slug}. Now what is making more sense:
1. Generating ten thousands of .html file for each products in the DB
2. Use routing in Nuxt like this "/products/$productSlug" and query for $productSlug in the database
To me the (2) approach is a clear winner here. And the performance only depends on how fast your API can query a single product from the database, which is pretty fast 99% of the time.
