Example app implementing progressive server-side render

Sometimes you want to not server render some parts of your application.

For example:

1. Third party components without server render capabilities
2. Components that depend on window or other browser only APIs
3. Content isn't important enough for the user (eg. below the fold content)

To handle these cases, you can conditionally render your component using the useEffect hook.

This example features:

• A custom hook called useMounted, implementing this behavior
• An app with a component that must only be rendered in the client
• A loading component that will be displayed before rendering the client-only component
