Static vs dynamic website

Static websites can have dynamic components.

Dynamic:

• a website is rendered at the time of request.
• Use server side languages
• Connected to database
• Complex
• Easily scalable
• Personalizable the content since users can interact with the website
• Loding time is not as fast as static

Static: pre-rendered and delivered via CDN

• very fast loading time
• Not easily scalable
• Low cost
• Easy to build
• No real-time content. No notifications, no recommendations.
