“Type-safe search params and route params are game-changing. Catch route errors at compile time, not runtime.”
“Some complexity with the App Router learning curve, but it's the most complete full-stack React framework.”
“The type safety for search params alone justifies adoption. URL state management done right.”
“Next.js defines how modern web apps are built. Server Components and AI SDK integration make it the platform for AI web apps.”
