Hello everyone! I am working on react app project that hosted on internet computer. Can I implement dynamic SEO on that? For example, when we share user profile link on the social platform, we should show user’s detail and photo as preview. In general, we should use SSR(Server Side Rendering) to…

SEO is supported, but setting dynamic meta tags for social media previews can be challenging, especially for single page applications built with React. From my experience, if you’re using React, only the meta tags you define in your index.html (your entry point) will be the ones shown for social med…

Thank you for your reply. You mean we can’t do it on the IC?

Generating dynamic metatags, ogimages etc is not too difficult to setup for a SPA on the Internet Computer. There are no libraries etc to support you as far as I know though. See this demo I did a while back as an example: Live demo: https://2lv2n-giaaa-aaaal-qjuda-cai.icp0.io/ [image] …

Thank you. This is good solution. btw, I am not using canister as a backend. Backend is hosted on the AWS, and frontend is hosted on IC Anyone have solution of this?

Ok, that is trickier then. The canister that serves the frontend needs to have knowledge about what should go into the meta tags etc. One option would be to let the AWS backend push some of that data to the frontend canister when the data changes. Another option would be to let the frontend canister…

I’ve run into this in a few projects now, do you think it could ever be feasible for dfinity to launch a standard frontend canister that allows for custom dynamic SEO/social sharing? If I understand correctly the options are to a. build a custom frontend canister b. use centralized server to route/…

Happy to give you some pointers if you want to fork the asset canister. It’s not that bad but it takes time to debug and design a nice interface. I’d love to put more time in but there’s always ‘more important’ stuff to do If you would like to make a PR instead I’d love to help you with that too. J…

Totally understand, it would be cool to contribute a PR, I will definitely take you up on a review when we get to that stage. I’ve started investigating the code to get an MVP together, thanks @Vivienne

The example I shared above, essentially is a simplified asset canister. Accept an incoming query request for an ogimage If a certified asset (the image) exists, serve it If a certified asset don’t exist, upgrade the call to an update call In the update call, generate the asset, certify it and serv…

It’s possible, but it needs quite a bit of ICP-specific logic that nobody has written yet. Have a look at motoko server. It’s a first version of SSR in Motoko
