What is Next.js?

Next.js is a popular React framework designed to enhance and simplify the process of building modern web applications. It extends the capabilities of React, providing a set of tools and features that make development faster, more efficient, and better suited for production.

Next.js is a powerful and versatile React framework that makes it easier to build performant, scalable, and user-friendly web applications. It offers a variety of features that streamline development, improve performance, and enhance the overall user experience.

How Next.js Works

• Hybrid Rendering: Next.js supports both server-side rendering (SSR) and static site generation (SSG). This means it can generate HTML for pages either on the server for each request (SSR), or ahead of time at build time (SSG). This flexibility allows you to choose the best rendering method for different pages or parts of your application depending on your needs.
• File-Based Routing: Next.js uses a file-based routing system. This means the structure of your 'pages' directory defines the routes of your application.
• Data Fetching: Next.js provides various methods to fetch data for your pages, making it easier to integrate with APIs and databases.
• API Routes: Next.js allows you to define serverless functions (API routes) directly within your project.
• Image Optimization: Next.js has built-in image optimization capabilities, ensuring your images are served in the most efficient way possible.
• Built-in CSS and JavaScript Bundling: Next.js handles optimizing and bundling your CSS and JavaScript code for improved performance.
• TypeScript Support: Next.js has first-class support for TypeScript, a statically typed superset of JavaScript that can help prevent errors and improve code maintainability.
