Load data client-side via react-query while using tRPC with SSR

Is there any way to load data client-side when using tRPC? I want my page to be rendered and load data dynamically, since this data is not SEO-relevant. As far as I'm understanding as soon as I turn on SSR in tRPC queries must be done before the page is rendered.

Seems like a use case for ssg where you can put some queries on the server and some on the client

SSG Helpers | tRPC

createProxySSGHelpers provides you a set of helper functions that you can use to prefetch queries on the server.

which means I'd have to disable ssr right?

yes

I don't know why but it kinda feels weird to disable it. all examples have it on and not having getServerSideProps (or similar) really makes code a lot easier to follow

wait hold on you can disable ssr on a procedure level too if most stuff are ssr

const clientQuery = trpc.post.byId({ id: 1 }, { 
  trpc: { ssr: false } 
});

const clientQuery = trpc.post.byId({ id: 1 }, { 
  trpc: { ssr: false } 
});
