How NextJS REALLY Works

NextJS is probably the best way to build your next React application. There are few better ways to do full stack with Javascript. Hopefully this video helps you better understand why!

THANK YOU MIR FOR THE GRIND TO GET THIS OUT TODAY!!!

As someone who’s been mildly critical of some of your videos, this video is spot on. I’m sick of explaining what you just explained here, and I’m going to direct people here from now on.

at this point of my development journey ( very new here, self taught 8 ish months in ) . your content is exactly what i needed, thank you!

it feels like this is a conversation/explanation that i would have or want to have when apart of a team. very much “in the field” vibes. helping tie in the knowledge of tools & how to think of developing with them !

stay safe. thanks again !

You dropped this video at the perfect time! My team is starting a new application and we're considering nextjs and this was an awesome introduction :)

[itzfinners]

Loving the new production style of video editing Theo! Just the inclusion of a "Coming Up" section is a great addition!

Former technical SEO, now developer. This is a great rundown to share this concept with others.

I love your style of explaining and you really seem to know what you are talking about, including all the other videos you made about next. You saved me probably tons of hours of research and I am really thankful for that!

The best lectures I've seen were given by professors using a blackboard. It just occurred to me that you archive the same greatness by using Excalidraw!

Amaizingly clear and useful content! Thanks a lot!

Thanks Theo!! I've been reluctant to adopt Next and other SSR tools because I didn't understand them. Now that I've heard your explanation I can see how cool Next is 👍

[robgioeli]

The intro music and clip-of-content before the explanation video starts is gold. You should start doing this again.

You forgot to mention that because of nextjs's server we can also create a minimal backend api, which is extremely useful for small fullstack projects. It is also something that only nextjs has, comparing to vite and CRA.

I missed like half of this live video so glad the video came out, this might be a personal favorite

[tastelikecrypto]

The way I understood it is next js is aiming to do what Angular does. Thanks for the content.

[sidwebworks]

I think the video title should be "How SSR/SSG works?".

Also I would argue that a Next app is a multi-page application because the client still requests a new page when you visit a new route, it's just that the next router and hydration patterns makes it "feel like a SPA". It's not really a SPA.

Anyways good video.

The sun is energy.
There is life on Earth.
This video slaps.
We all will pay taxes.

These are nothing but straight facts.
Great content Theo!

That is a beautiful explanation, thank you, Theo!

[DennisHorn]

This is absolutely important background-knowledge! Fantastic explanation! Thank you! 😀👍

[victorbrown]

We really need this for app router as well. Especially how navigation works!

[ShiloBuff]

This is amazing depth and details. Right down my alley. I like your style. Thank you.
