Next.js is the most versatile React framework — supporting static generation, server-side rendering, and client-side rendering in a single application. Unlike Gatsby (SSG-only), Next.js handles dynamic, personalized content. Unlike plain React (CSR-only), Next.js delivers SEO-friendly server-rendered HTML to search engines and AI crawlers.
Next.js is excellent for D2C ecommerce. It's the foundation of Shopify Hydrogen (Shopify's own headless framework), and it consistently delivers the fastest page loads and best Core Web Vitals among all major ecommerce frontend options — directly impacting SEO rankings and conversion rates.
We primarily deploy on Vercel (Next.js's native hosting platform) for optimal performance and zero-configuration edge deployments. We also deploy on AWS, Google Cloud, and self-managed servers when enterprise requirements demand it.
