Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi there! Thanks for writing in  - Sam from Moz's Help Team here! Unfortunately not - I'm so sorry about that.  Any client side loaded content will not be rendered to our crawler as we are only seeing what is rendered by your server. Our crawler works by parsing the source code of your site, looking at HTML elements.  If your site is primarily Javascript, then the data you get back with regards to the crawl report won't be completely accurate because of this. There's no real workaround that I can recommend for this one, since it is a technical limitation of our tools, but there are some good blog posts and discussions in the Q&A about this if you head over to our Help Hub. While the tools and data that rely on our crawl of your site may not return the best results because of that Javascript, your keyword rankings and link profile should work just fine. You might also want to check out a few tools that are compatible with Javascript, like Botify or Screaming Frog. I'm really sorry I can't be of more help here; Please let me know if there's anything else I can help with, or if there are any follow-up questions you might have!

There has long been a debate about whether it's easier to rank subfolders or subdomains and you'll find people on both sides of that argument. Usually inherent in that argument is that the branding and navigation will be the same across the whole site including subdomains. In your case though, you are basically building a separate site as a subdomain with its own branding, navigation, and URL structure. Even though subdomains are said to be treated as a separate site, we still feel like it's not quite the same as being a totally separate site, so our suggestion is that you will probably be better off building out that site on a new domain rather than a subdomain. We'd be curious to hear from others on this topic too.
