After our recent announcement of urql v1 we've received lots of positive feedback and support, but it became clear that the most requested feature for urql was server-side rendering.

So we went back into the machine room and implemented it, so today we're publishing urql v1.1, just a week after our blog post! Our new implementation of server-side rendering works by adding a single new exchange, the ssrExchange, and using a new suspense-mode on the server-side, which can be used together with react-ssr-prepass to prefetch urql queries. 🎉

Getting started with server-side rendering in urql is easy! We've got an extensive guide on how to set it up, which you can read on our new & fancy docs site, or alternatively as markdown on GitHub.

We've also added a new example to our repository based on Next.js!
