What is the difference between HTML and 'rendered HTML' when rendering a webpage?

Time:02-24

As seen in numerous articles about webpage rendering. What is the difference between the two?

CodePudding user response:

This is a common term when working with Single Page Applications (SPAs) built on React, Angular, Vue, etc. These frameworks render out Typescript/Javascript into browser-readable HTML. This is different then just making a raw .html file because these framework scripts are being 'rendered' as HTML.

CodePudding user response:

Based on my understanding, HTML is a markup language that can be used to make web pages. Content wise, rendered or not, it will have the same tags <html></html>, <body></body>, and so on.

The only different I see as a user is that for a static HTML page, the id tags (e.g. <div id="myID"></div>) and class tags will likely be same for each visit.

However for rendered HTML page, the ids and classes might be different each time. (e.g. <div id="myID12"></div> for 1st time, but <div id="myID34"></div> for the second).

One possible incentive for using rendered HTML is to prevent other people from using web crawlers or automated programs on the website. I hope this answers your question.
