Add ISR Support for Caching

[jdgamble555]

Rich Harris has said he will add ISR to SvelteKit after version one. I think this feature is huge in the community. There are a lot of NextJS users who don't like React, but use NextJS simply for the ISR Support.

Allowing page caching would be huge for SolidJS, and I believe would bring in more people into the community who don't want to use React, which is important.

All ISR is, is easily adaptation of the cache-control header with in your app on edge functions.

I believe this could be easily done with much reward.

I think this should be best asked at https://github.com/solidjs/solid-start

on the ISR, I've made a proposal to include a cache integration for the purpose of ISR. The cache integration would accept an interface similar to a KV store, except that the implementation may vary on the integration, which opens to a lot of opportunities like using Cloudflare's KV store, Redis, File-based caching, In-memory, etc.

Currently using next.js but I am also looking for another framework doing ISR because I'd like to avoid the vercel vendor lock in, where economic incentives are shaping the framework more and more, leading to a worst DX as it is a pain to deploy outside of their platform (which is crazy expensive when you need to scale).

TBH, reading this I had no idea what ISR is. For clarity, ISR is "incremental static regeneration". It seems to be a build strategy coming from Next.js. Here's some info:

• https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/incremental-static-regeneration/overview
• https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/data-fetching/incremental-static-regeneration

It's not something I want personally but an interesting idea nevertheless.
