Every time I see nextjs I just ask myself why?
I’m very experienced on UI and I’ve been team lead on projects shipping apps that are used by millions of users. Have experience on SPAs and server rendered.
All this level of complexity just seems too much.
Am I missing something? Why would I choose nextjs? Convince me since everyone seems to love this over engineered stuff.

- yieldcrv 4y agoI’ve felt that way many times on other frameworks and abstractions I personally find Next.js to be a simplicity (and this article to be contrived and overcomplicated) What I personally like: The React router system is greatly simplified with all scaffolding removed in favor of a Link tag more similar to html’s a tag Folder structure based API system that has no vendor locking, just standardization to what REST best practices already are, instead of relying on everyone having that discipline Ability to deviate for other network communication paradigms if its important some other things, but really it just simplifies what many of us already learned to do, and thats what most languages and frameworks do for the time period they were released in.
- NayamAmarshe 4y ago> Why would I choose nextjs? - Great routing system. - React. Easy to debug, fast to develop. - In-built Serverless API support. - Good third-party developer support and documentation. - Fast. Can do SSG/SSR/ISR and everything in-between. Doesn't really take much to know why Next.js is cool.
