Next.js Reviews

1. Kurslog team

   · Working at Kurslog · 5 months ago

   Next.js has become the de-facto standard for our frontend engineering team when building modern web applications. The Server-Side Rendering (SSR) and Static Site Generation (SSG) are absolutely essential for our product's SEO strategy and fast indexing.

   The transition to the App Router initially required a paradigm shift for our developers, but it ultimately made our architecture much more scalable. We love that the framework handles the heavy lifting—image optimization, code splitting, and routing—allowing our team to focus purely on business logic. It provides a phenomenal Developer Experience that keeps our deployment cycles fast and predictable.

   Competitors: Remix, Nuxt.js, Svelte, Vite

   Pros:    Out-of-the-box ssr and ssg for excellent seo|Superb developer experience with zero-config setup|Built-in optimizations for images, fonts, and scripts|Highly scalable routing via the app router

   Cons:    The app router requires a paradigm shift and learning curve for the team at first|Caching strategies can be tricky to master and debug across a large, dynamic app

• OpenPledge: See Exactly Where Your Donation Goes (Blockchain + AI for Charity)

  Built with Next.js 16 (React 19), Bun, Tailwind CSS v4, and shadcn/ui on Base UI — scaffolded with create-notils and linted with Biome. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• Building a Multilingual Shop with Next.js

  In this article, we’ll look at how to approach these problems in a Next.js application using the App Router. Rather than focusing on the basics of translating strings, we’ll focus on the technical decisions behind the implementation: how the language is detected, how it’s propagated through the application, how translations are loaded on the server and client, and how localized routes are handled. - Source: dev.to / 11 days ago

• What Browserslist Actually Does in Next.js

  We set up three near-identical Next.js 16 projects to answer a simple question: if you set a browserslist target in package.json, does the build change to match it? We tested three targets (ie 11, chrome 116, about 3 years old, and chrome 139, about 1 year old) and compared the compiled output byte by byte. - Source: dev.to / 8 days ago

• We’re all full stack now

  Blurring of the lines. React Server Components (RSC) and associated frameworks such as NextJS involve code executing on both server and client, while HTMX focuses on markup and emphasises use of full-stack/backend templating engines to generate code targetting the browser. Working with these new tools blurs the distinction between the front end and back end skill set. - Source: dev.to / 20 days ago

• The Past Keeps Changing

  What replaced the laptop, before we get to the schema: Health Auto Export now posts straight to a Vercel function on a daily schedule, a scheduled job pulls lifting history from Liftosaur, and both land in TimescaleDB on Tiger Cloud. No files, no iCloud, no Mac. A Next.js app reads it and tells me whether I hit protein, which is a separate post. - Source: dev.to / 22 days ago

• Quoting Difficulties

  In my last post I discussed DSLs for database querying in Clojure. These typically take the form of data structures. - Source: dev.to / 21 days ago

• Ease Comes After

  One of the most famous talks in computer science is Simple Made Easy by Rich Hickey, The creator of the programming language Clojure. In it, he explains that, "simple" and "easy" are not the same thing. He refers to the word origins of the two words:. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Synchronous Functions in Dart

  This series of post will try to explain a complex topic: concurrent and parallel programming, in Dart. I think the only way to deal with that is using the Erlang VM (BEAM), but Clojure and other functional languages are usually doing better job on this part. Unfortunately, to me, most of other languages using OOP don't offer a great abstraction to concurrency and parallelism, but during the last decade, things are... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Which Lisp? Beginner

  Oversimplifying, there are three big variants: Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure. Each of them has a lot of somewhat similar implementations: * Clojure: A lot of support for immutable data. It runs in the JVM so you will have a lot of the libraries you are use to. Probably the best option for you. https://clojure.org/ * Scheme, in particular Racket: Mostly functional, and in particular Racket has a lot of support to... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Create a Server Driven CLI from your REST API

  Another project of mine Bob can be seen as an example of spec-first design. All its tooling follow that idea and its CLI inspired Climate. A lot of Bob uses Clojure a language that I cherish and who's ideas make me think better in every other place too. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
