Using Next.js for Modern Web Applications
January 16, 2026
What is Next.js?
Next.js is a web framework developed by Vercel, built on top of React. It offers powerful features such as server-side rendering (SSR), static site generation (SSG), and API routes.
Why Next.js?
There are many reasons to choose Next.js for modern web applications:
- Performance: Automatic code splitting and optimization
- SEO: Search engine friendly pages with server-side rendering
- Developer Experience: Hot reload, TypeScript support, and rich ecosystem
- Scalability: Edge runtime and middleware support
Next Generation Routing with App Router
The App Router introduced with Next.js 13 fully supports React Server Components. This allows you to clearly separate server-side and client-side components.
At Kompanse, we use the latest version of Next.js in our projects to deliver the best performance to our clients.
