Next.js Architecture
This skill provides Next.js architecture expertise including App Router, Server Components, performance optimization, and migration strategies.
When to Use This Skill
- When designing Next.js application architecture
- When migrating from Pages Router to App Router
- When implementing Server Components
- When optimizing Next.js performance
- When making Next.js architecture decisions
- When building full-stack Next.js applications
What This Skill Does
- Architecture Design: Designs Next.js application structure
- App Router: Implements App Router patterns and routing
- Server Components: Uses Server Components effectively
- Performance: Optimizes Next.js for production
- Migration: Migrates from Pages Router to App Router
- Best Practices: Applies Next.js best practices
How to Use

Specific Patterns
Implement Server Components for this feature
Architecture Patterns
App Router Structure
app/
├── (auth)/
│ ├── login/page.tsx
│ └── register/page.tsx
├── dashboard/
│ ├── layout.tsx
│ ├── page.tsx
│ └── analytics/page.tsx
├── api/
│ └── users/route.ts
└── layout.tsx
Server Components
Pattern:
- Server Components by default
- Client Components with 'use client'
- Direct database access in Server Components
- Streaming with Suspense
Performance
Strategies:
- Static generation for known content
- ISR for frequently changing content
- Streaming for slow queries
- Image optimization
- Code splitting
Examples
Example 1: App Router Migration
Input: Migrate Pages Router to App Router
Output:
## Next.js Migration: Pages Router → App Router
### Migration Steps
**1. Convert Layout**
```typescript
// Before: pages/_app.tsx
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) {
return <Component {...pageProps} />;
}
// After: app/layout.tsx
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
return (
<html>
<body>{children}</body>
</html>
);
}
2. Convert Pages
// Before: pages/users/[id].tsx
export default function UserPage({ user }) {
return <UserProfile user={user} />;
}
// After: app/users/[id]/page.tsx
export default async function UserPage({ params }) {
const user = await getUser(params.id);
return <UserProfile user={user} />;
}
## Best Practices
### Next.js Architecture
1. **Server First**: Use Server Components by default
2. **Client When Needed**: Add 'use client' only when necessary
3. **Static When Possible**: Generate static pages when feasible
4. **Stream Slow Queries**: Use Suspense for slow data
5. **Optimize Images**: Use Next.js Image component
