Next.js
A short explanation of Next.js in our glossary
Next.js is a framework for server-side-rendered React applications, made by Vercel and used by companies such as Netflix, Hulu and TikTok. The open-source framework is used to build websites and web applications. It helps developers create Static Site Generation (SSG) and Server-Side Rendering (SSR) for a website.
One of Next.js's core strengths is that it supports website models with multiple pages. Development with Next.js is also low-code and zero-configuration, in order to simplify the work for frontend developers.
