According to a fairly recent article (Feb 2020):

> It's a common myth that you can't server side render Web Components. Turns out you can if you look in the right place.

https://dev.to/steveblue/server-side-rendering-web-component...

The article mentions a few libraries for this purpose.

- Vaadin Router - https://vaadin.com/router

- SkateJS - https://skatejs.netlify.app/

- SkateJS: Web component server-side rendering - https://github.com/skatejs/skatejs/tree/master/packages/ssr

This latter looks good, I hadn't seen that before.

As a possible successor to React, Vue, et al, there's a wide range of functionality expected of Web Components. Server-side rendering of shadow DOM (I don't know what that really means, but) seems to be one of the tough questions yet to find a definitive answer.
