This is the type of thing I'd never think about but should Just Work out of the box.

It claims 60% faster subsequent builds (63% for Scale), but how much can an ordinary side-project gain? (let's say, 100 component files?)

I recently tried using Next instead of Nuxt, but I seem to recall I couldn't export optimised images when doing a statically generated site.

Has this changed, or are there any plans to change it?

Hey Lee, thank you for all your work! Big company here in Portland, and we just went all in on Next.js – so far our development speed has increased, and junior devs are easily onboarded.

One request would be an official state management extension – coming from Vue and Vuex, this is something I miss. We're currently using Redux Toolkit, but would be great to have something official for Next along the lines of Vuex, Reframe, or Elm.

* update (writing this between lots of meetings :| )

One huge value we get from Next is the opinions and conventions. Large dev teams benefit from this – which is why we've been using Ember and Ember Data for years, and Rails before that.

Having an opinionated state management that plays nicely with Next on the client AND the server is what I'd like to see. We're doing quite a few workarounds currently with Redux to support managing state from within the components and during `getServerSideProps`. If all my dreams came true, it would be nice to persist state conditionally in Redis or Mongo.

Sorry for the rambling thoughts – just loving Next, and incredibly busy building our new core IP with it.

I like having the choice, for us immer and context usually is all we need beyond state & props so would not like to be forced into something opinionated. Free to choose just like you decide how to interface with your backend/state. Don’t turn this into a rails or danjo, please :)

I run a pretty complex web app and haven't upgraded to webpack 5 yet with Next. I have some custom webpack stuff so hopefully the migration isn't too painful, but I will report back with the compilation time improvement once done.

Out of the box, specifically at the browser level, especially since route changes affect the History API (unless I'm mistaken)

What kind of deep integration are you looking for with a preferred state framework?
