Summary of How NextJS REALLY Works

00:00:00 - 00:25:00

NextJS is a JavaScript library that helps you build faster, more consistent web pages. NextJS lets you opt in or out of server rendering, depending on the situation. NextJS also includes a URL metadata checker that helps you verify the metadata of your pages.

• 00:00:00 NextJS is a server-rendered framework for React which eliminates the need for multiple roundtrips between the client and the server.
• 00:05:00 NextJS allows for the correct data to be rendered on the client side, even if the user is on a slow network.
• 00:10:00 NextJS is a JavaScript library that helps you build faster, more consistent web pages. NextJS lets you opt in or out of server rendering, depending on the situation. NextJS also includes a URL metadata checker that helps you verify the metadata of your pages.
• 00:15:00 NextJS is a library that helps to speed up the process of creating websites by allowing for server rendering. When using NextJS, the code that is run on the server prior to the loading of HTML is different from the code that is run on the client, which makes it easier to differenciate between a normal website and a NextJS website.
• 00:20:00 NextJS works differently than traditional spa architectures, which means the initial HTML that loads differs depending on the framework used. NextJS is server-side rendered, so the first step of the page's rendering is done differently depending on the framework used. NextJS is easier than ever to make a create react app-style single page app, as all you need is correct HTML.
• 00:25:00 NextJS is a React-based framework that enables you to generate different HTML based on routes, making it a great tool for building single page apps. However, since NextJS is also back-end ready, it can be used to build standalone applications as well.
