Hello Product Hunt! We are proud today to introduce the production-ready Next.js 9, featuring: Built-in Zero-Config TypeScript Support Build your application with increased confidence, thanks to automatic TypeScript support and integrated type-checking. File system-Based Dynamic Routing Express complex application routing requirements through the file system without the need for a custom server. Automatic Static Optimization Create ultra-fast websites that leverage Server-Side Rendering and Static Prerendering by default without compromising on features. API Routes Quickly build back-end application endpoints, leveraging hot-reloading and a unified build-pipeline. More Production Optimizations Applications are more responsive than ever thanks to in-viewport prefetching and other optimizations. Improved DX Unobtrusive, ease-of-use improvements to help you develop at your best.

Hello, Product Hunt! 👋🏻 We are proud today to introduce the production-ready Next.js 8, featuring: - Serverless Next.js - Massive build-time memory usage reduction - Build-time environment configuration - Prefetch performance improvements - Smaller initial HTML size - Improved on-demand entries - Faster port listening in development - Faster Static Export - Head element deduplication - New crossOrigin config option - Removed inline Javascript - Example of API Authentication As always, we have strived to ensure all these benefits are completely backwards compatible. For most Next.js applications, all you need to do is run: `npm i next@latest react@latest react-dom@latest` We are thankful to our community and everyone who has bet on our success. Since our last blog post, we have seen companies like AT&T, Starbucks and Twitch relaunch their public-facing websites and apps with Next.js. https://nextjs.org/static/blog/next-8/twitter-card.png Serverless Next.js You can now enable serverless mode in Next.js config, that will give you: - Low-level API for implementing serverless deployment - Every page in the pages directory becomes a serverless function (lambda) - Creates the smallest possible serverless function (50Kb base zip size) - Optimized for fast cold start of the function - The serverless function has 0 dependencies (they are included in the function bundle) - And more! Massive memory usage reduction We have contributed to webpack to improve Next.js's (and the rest of the webpack ecosystem's!) build performance and resource utilization. As a result, we were able to achieve up to 16 times better memory usage with no degradation in performance. Build-time configuration With Next.js 8 we are introducing a new key to `next.config.js` named `env` to provide configuration values to the application. Prefetch performance improvements In Next.js 8 prefetch uses a link tag with `rel="preload"` instead of a script tag. It also only starts prefetching after `onload` to allow the browser to manage resources. DX Improvements - Improved on-demand entries - Faster port listening in development - Faster Static Export - Head element deduplication To get a more in-depth look at all the new features, check our our blog post. Also feel free to join us on Spectrum. Next.js community has over 4,570 members!
