Do I still need PhantomJS or prerender.io for crawlers

554 views Asked by At

I am revamping a project in which i am using AngularJS in frontend. But i was stuck in issue to serve pages to crawlers. On local we are not using akamai, but on staging and production we have implemented it (with old stack).

My question is when i replace my frontend from PHP to AngularJS do i need to implement that prerender.io or other tools like same to provide my page to crawlers. As akamai store pages in plan html, so will akamai is capable of same or do i need to implement that prerender.io or is there some other plugin in akamai which will do the job?
Thanks

Prerender.io On BEST ANSWER

Akamai doesn't render any javascript pages into HTML by default, so if you are in need of a prerendering solution then you'll want to use https://prerender.io/

Here's an example config on how to set up the middleware with Akamai: https://community.akamai.com/thread/2288
