Meet OpenNext, The Initiative To Make NextJS Run Better Across Platforms


Meet OpenNext, The Initiative To Make NextJS Run Better Across Platforms

Are you trying to boost your SEO with some SSR?

Perhaps you used the amazing, yet still painful to use, framework NextJS.

Well allow me to introduce you to OpenNext. They have tools/repos that allow you to run on AWS, CloudFlair and Netlify.

When I saw this my first thoughts were “Where was this 6 months ago when I wired NextJS into a Lambda?!?!”. The answer is “Probably somewhere obvious and I just missed it”.

Am I going to tear out all my stack and wire this in today? No.

Am I going to keep an eye on this and see how it measures up? Probably.

Question for you:

Are you using NextJS or any other SSR tool in your stack?
