Next.js Framework

What is Next.js?

Next.js is a React framework for building web applications with server-side rendering (SSR) and static site generation (SSG) out of the box. It is maintained by Vercel and a community of individual developers and companies. Next.js allows developers to build fast, scalable, and SEO-friendly applications easily.

The main features of Next.js are:

• Server-side rendering (SSR) for improved performance and SEO.
• Static site generation (SSG) for fast, pre-rendered pages.
• API routes to easily build backend endpoints within the same project.
• File-based routing for a straightforward and intuitive routing system.
• Built-in support for CSS and Sass, as well as CSS-in-JS libraries.

Why use Next.js?

Next.js is a popular choice for building production-ready web applications because of its flexibility and the features it offers out of the box. Some of the reasons to use Next.js are:

• It improves SEO by offering server-side rendering and static site generation.
• It has great performance due to pre-rendering and optimized image loading.
• It allows developers to easily integrate backend APIs within the same codebase using API routes.
• It provides a flexible framework for handling static, server-rendered, or hybrid web pages.
• It has a large and growing community, with support from Vercel and third-party libraries.

We believe the most important reason to use Next.js is its simplicity and power combined. It abstracts away many complexities, allowing developers to focus on building features instead of configuring tools and optimizations. With Next.js, you get a modern, production-grade framework that is ready to scale.
