Server Side Rendering(SSR) vs Client Side Rendering - for SEO

Server Side Rendering(SSR) and Client Side Rendering are two different ways in which a website is served to a client. SSR and CSR both have their own advantages and disadvantges. Which one would you prefer for better SEO (e.g. blog, ecommerce etc), and what are the quirks of search engines that affects your page ranking? This whole debate has JS at the center - if there is no JavaScript in picture(hardly possible in modern websites and apps) and there is plain old HTML and CSS, then there is no CSR and SSR - its a static site!...
