hey everyone my name is vishwas and welcome to the most comprehensive next year's tutorial course throughout this course we will build from the ground up exploring all key Concepts in next Shar we will be focusing on version 15 and above depending on when you're watching in this introduction I'll cover what nexs is why it's worth learning and what you need to know before getting started so what exactly is nexs nexs is a react
framework for building full stack web applications when building applications with react alone it's not feasible to create a fully featured application ready for production react is a library for building user interfaces responsible only for the view layer of an application as a developer you need to make decisions about other features such as routing data fetching and more next shs on the other hand is a react framework it uses react for building
user interfaces but also provides additional features that enable you to build production ready applications these features include routing optimized rendering data fetching bundling compiling and more you don't have to install additional packages as nexs provides everything you need however keep in mind that nexs being a framework has opinions and conventions that should be followed to implement these features there's no need to worry though as the
conventions have emerged from a team with years of experience in writing react apps for production so to reiterate nexs is a react framework for building production ready full stack web applications now that we understand what nextjs is let's see why it's worth learning the reason to learn next shares stems from the fact that it simplifies the process of building production ready web applications let me list some of the
key features that Nies provides out of the box first is routing traditional react applications require installing and configuring thirdparty routing packages every time you need to create a route nexts simplifies this with file based rout in you just create files and the routes are automatically generated second is API routes which sets nexs apart as a full stack framework you can build both frontend
react components and backend epis within the same nexs application allowing seamless integration between your front end and backend code third is rendering flexibility next supports both server side and client side rendering approaches when implemented properly this leads to improved performance and better search engine optimization fourth is streamlined data fetching xgs provides buil-in esync a
support in react components making data fetching straightforward and efficient xgs is also flexible with styling approaches supporting CSS modules tailin CSS and CSS injs solutions to match your preferences additionally nextjs includes outof thebox optimizations for images fonts and scripts enhancing your application core web vitals and overall user experience ience finally nexts comes with an optimized development and
production build system this means you can focus on writing code instead of dealing with complex configurations these features combined to make nexts a powerful framework for web development throughout this course we will explore each feature in detail also please note that I may refer to nexts simply as next in the course so please don't get confused now what about the prerequisites HTML CSS and model and
JavaScript knowledge are required since nexs is a react framework it's also essential to have a good understanding of react fundamentals while you don't need to be an expert you should be familiar with Concepts like function components props State jsx and hooks if you're new to react I have an extensive tutorial series that covers react from beginner to advanced level so make sure to check that out my goal is to guide you from a complete beginner to becoming
an expert in next year you can find all Source codes for this course in the GitHub repository Linked In the description with this introduction let's move on to building our first hello world application in nexts supporting the channel is free please like And subscribe it helps a lot
