Next.js Reviews

   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

• 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 / 1 day 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 / 13 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 / 15 days ago

  This guide shows you how to install and use the Shadcn Checkbox component in React and Next.js. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Mark Zuckerberg tells staff that AI agents haven't progressed enough

  Yes, it’s built on the shoulders of giants, Next.js[0] and lesser-known Keystone.js[1]. Next is a full stack framework and Keystone is a CMS built on top of Prisma and GraphQL. Keystone was created by this Australian company called Thinkmill. They have used it to help businesses build custom backend systems for more than a decade. But it needed to be deployed separately from Next and they were using emotion css... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Coding expertise is going to collapse from AI reliance

  I like using grill me in conjunction with obra superpowers spec driven development https://www.aihero.dev/skills-grill-me https://github.com/obra/superpowers When I'm doing something quite complex I'll also throw in gstack office hours but I find that its usually overkill for many things https://github.com/garrytan/gstack I do often use the /qa skill regardless though. I always hated QA because it was so... - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• The most popular AI coding skills right now

  GStack is Garry Tan's Claude Code setup, and at nearly 110,000 stars it is one of the most popular skill collections out there. Instead of one mode that handles everything, it gives the agent distinct roles, each behind its own slash command. It has product vision, designer, engineering manager, release manager, doc engineer, QA, and post-launch retrospective. It is the same genre as Superpowers, a full workflow,... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• GStack: Turn Claude Code Into a Full Engineering Team

  That is the design. And it is why GStack — Garry Tan's open-source Claude Code skill setup — has accumulated 82,700 stars and 12,000 forks on GitHub since its March 2026 launch. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• The YC President Endorsed an AI Memory System With Fake Benchmarks. He Also Shipped His Own. We Read the Code.

  This is not the first time. Tan's previous project, gstack, has amassed over 69,000 GitHub stars. Developer Mo Bitar described it as "a bunch of prompts in a folder." Another founder noted that without the YC title, it would not have made Product Hunt. A developer who examined Tan's AI-generated website code found 78,400 lines including empty CSS files, duplicate assets, and test files shipped to production. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• CFFBRW went from drag-and-drop to "hey AI, just deploy this for me"

  And I believe any builder should use Gstack from Garry Tan. Old news I know, but for people who live under a rock like I do. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
