Beidou is an isomorphic (universal) JavaScript framework from Alibaba for building server-rendered React applications on Node.js. It builds on the Egg framework and provides auto routing, webpack integration, TypeScript support, and streaming SSR out of the box.

Use cases

• build a server-rendered React app
• improve SEO for a React application
• speed up first paint compared to client-side rendering
• set up a React app with auto routing and zero config
• use TypeScript in a server-rendered React project
• render React components to a Node stream

When to choose

• you want an opinionated, batteries-included SSR framework for React on Node.js
• SEO and fast first render are priorities
• you like the Egg.js ecosystem and want React view rendering on top of it

When to avoid

• you use Next.js or another actively developed SSR framework
• you need a purely client-side SPA
• you need long-term active maintenance - the project sees infrequent releases
