NextJS

In previous posts, I explored how Server Components in NextJS improve performance by offloading more rendering to the server. Managing server-side state differs from client-side, as it’s static and immutable during a single render. NextJS provides tools like cache, unstable_cache, and patched fetch to manage this state efficiently, reducing prop drilling and simplifying code. These tools offer caching across requests, but require a shift from traditional client-side approaches for better performance

This article builds on “Architecting NextJS Applications for Better Performance,” focusing on optimizing state management in NextJS projects. It explores the pitfalls of overusing Context providers and client-side state, which can bloat bundles and hurt performance. By strategically identifying which parts of your app should be client or server components, you can leverage NextJS’s capabilities to build faster, more efficient applications.

Explore how to optimize React 18 applications using Next.js for better performance and SEO. It covers the use of Server Components to reduce JavaScript on the client, improve Core Web Vitals (CWV), and enhance User Experience (UX). Key strategies include isolating client components, minimizing their size, and balancing client-server rendering. It also highlights Next.js’s render lifecycle and provides tips for building faster, SEO-friendly applications.
