honestly, maybe there's really a use case for doing something like that (like having to support IE8 or some other bullshit), but talking about pre-rendering javascript on the server to "improve performance" is a big sign that I'm going to have to throw out the project and start from scratch - up there with "javascript caching and data layer." Both are signs that you have old people trying to do front-end work.
