## What it is
A React library that enables a single component import to work seamlessly across server-side rendering and client-side code splitting. It resolves the traditional conflict between SSR and dynamic imports so universal React apps can split code without breaking server rendering.

## Use cases
- server-side render React components with code splitting
- lazy load React components without breaking SSR
- code split a universal React app
- avoid flash of loading state during SSR hydration
- split routes in a universal React application

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy universal React app using webpack and need SSR-compatible code splitting
- you want one import syntax that works on both server and client
- you're on an older React stack where React.lazy and modern frameworks don't fit

## When to avoid
- you're starting a new project with Next.js or React Server Components, which handle this natively
- your app is purely client-side rendered with no SSR needs
- you need actively maintained software - the project is in maintenance mode with infrequent releases

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ssr, frontend-framework, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: browser
- tags: react, code-splitting, server-side-rendering, universal-rendering, webpack, lazy-loading, nodejs, web-server
