The Story of Next.js

[hassaniyouness]

what I love about this series is how it combines the history and evolution of a problem so you can see very clearly why we ended up here, great work Tyler!

I’ve been a nextjs developer for the last year and I am blown away how developer friendly it is. Every feature is better than the last

Tyler, you're like a companion for all of us technologist overwhelmed and fatigued by the vast amount of technological desicions we have to make every day. Thank you!

Awesome video! I've been a professional AngularJS then Angular developer for the past 10 years and I'm shifting towards NextJS because I really think this is the future of web apps. The simplicity of nextJS is just stunning, you don't have to create lambda functions and build an entire API gateway in AWS to get things going. Combining it with Prisma and PlanetScale is just absolutely amazing. We are also finally moving away from Redux and towards smart key-based stale-while-revalidate caching mechanisms that make the UI even faster and simplify the development further. Soo soo good! Best time to be a web dev!

Wow this was amazing! As a backend developer whose exposure to the JS world has unfortunately mostly been through complaints of how bad it is, this makes me want to fire up a Next.js application right away and get started with exploring this whole new world!

You have a real gift for explaining complex topics simply...and coherently...and conceptually. You would make a fortune if you created a series on JS and frameworks.

You've managed to answer the "Why" behind the existence of this technology, which is something I've never heard explained well. Javascript frameworks have such annoying mania that I could never tell whether something was a real, viable technology or not. Very well done.

I love NextJS for how simple iot makes sever-side rendering with getStaticProps and getServerSideProps. It's so intuitive. SWR is also great.

[ArrigoLupori]

This is incredibly good.

I think it's the first time ever that I took notes on a YouTube video that wasn't supposed to be a study subject.
You packed SO MUCH VALUE in 12 minutes, I can tell the insane amount of research behind it.

Honestly, I'm impressed.
I think I might have a new favorite channel :D

Uploading this as a podcast would help me through my day

[romanvinogradovby]

It. Just. Brilliant. Masterpiece.
Have no more words.
Love the narrative style with all the video inserts from the past and present.
You have covered the subject in great details. Thanks!

this video is so great. as a webdev novice who came through the coding bootcamp pipeline, feeling a bit bewildered about everything going on in the landscape of webdev, this gives an essential look at the history of "what" i've been doing and why i am doing it.
new devs are exposed to so many different technologies and stacks nowadays that i feel most of us have no idea why we use one thing as opposed to another. this video definitely provides clarity to novices about what the thought within the webdev community as a whole has been that has lead us to this point.
thanks you for this content!

I really like your videos, especially your most recent ones, which are more like storytelling. I feel like the programming videos on YouTube are mostly full of tutorials, and there are less videos which look at things from a higher-level perspective as these ones do. Awesome work

[mr-skorpion]

A very well put together video, enjoyed and learnt a few things. NextJS is definitely one of the best things to happen to front-end development in recent times. I love working with Next and emotion to make fast, reactive SPAs 🌸

[dubola]

I wanted it to be longer because i enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you!

[FinnReinhardt]

Lovely content. You just keep on delivering. I knew when I saw your first Video at just around a few thousand subscribers, your hard work would pay off!

[mirzaarabferuvian]

I was frustrated for the past 3 months, as I have nothing to do in my spare time beside gaming. Just found out your channel yesterday and immediately subs with notification on. Thank you for giving me purpose to fill my spare time beside just mindlessly watching youtube short or and instagram

[Taaz]

I am a web backend engineer and it obviously comes with it's own culture like absolute disdain for anything frontal.
Though, your videos, especially how you always explain the history of each project and it's building blocks, in a concise way is something I will gladly enjoy. Awesome work.

[theMadZakuPilot]

I like how you always include the history.

[minierparedes]

Your narration and the pace with which you provide us the information about the subject matter make these the best documentary series!
