Research direction

Start with the currently empty useServerData documentation and the discussion in issue #4506 linked from this report. Clarify which contexts support useServerData, including routeLoader$ if applicable, and document the recommended high-level alternative for shared server context; the documentation is complete when these questions are answered.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

docs good first issue PR welcomed
Suggestion

The documentation for useServerData is currently empty.

@manucorporat mentions in https://github.com/QwikDev/qwik/issues/4506#issuecomment-1597801559:

it's a very low level API, that most developers should never have to use

Should it be mentioned in the docs?

More points:

  • It's not clear in what contexts useServerData should work. Is it supported in the routeLoader$, for example?
  • What is the recommended (high level) alternative for a global server context accessible in routeLoader$, onStaticGenerate, ... ?
