DESCRIPTION

It provides file-based routing, server-side rendering, static generation, and API routes out of the box.Running next with no command is an alias for next dev. Configuration lives in next.config.js (or .mjs/.ts). Starting with Next 13 the default output directory is .next.

CAVEATS
Requires Node.js. The standalone next export command was removed in Next.js 14 in favor of `output: 'export'` in next.config.js. Linting as part of next build is being phased out starting in Next.js 15.5.
HISTORY
Next.js was created by Vercel (then ZEIT) and released in 2016 as a React framework for production applications. Later versions introduced App Router, React Server Components, and Turbopack.
