NextJS

Next.js provides the most progressive and performant front-end for a content-orientated website application. It is a widely used framework that manages server-side rendering with React, used in the Blaze front-end application. It works with NodeJS and leverages its capabilities for backend operations, creating a unified JavaScript client and server-side environment.

Next.js’s ability to render components on the server side gives faster page loads, a seamless user experience and improved SEO, as search engines can crawl the server-rendered content effectively. Blaze extends NextJS to support dynamic rendering of content, where components can be updated in real-time as content changes, or personalised component by component for each visitor, using GraphQL and the data layer.
