What is Next.js?
Next.js is an open-source React framework created by Vercel. It adds routing, server rendering, data fetching conventions, API endpoints, and production optimizations on top of React so teams can ship full-stack applications without assembling those pieces by hand. The modern App Router centers on React Server Components, nested layouts, and streaming.
Why Learn Next.js?
Next.js is one of the most widely used React frameworks for production sites and apps, with strong SEO defaults, flexible rendering (static, SSR, ISR, and client), and built-in image, font, and script optimizations. Learning the App Router, Server Actions, and deployment workflows is especially valuable for modern frontend and full-stack roles.
