I was able to learn a wide range of concepts from basic to advanced in Next.js. In particular, I was able to easily understand complex topics that might be difficult to understand through visual materials and animations. The lecture content is well organized in stages, so even beginners can follow along without difficulty, and I think even intermediate and above developers can learn a lot from this lecture. In addition, not only did I learn the grammar, but I also learned the theoretical aspects of Next.js's operation, internal mechanisms, SSR, SSG, ISR, and various methods in depth, as well as methods that can be applied to actual projects, which was very helpful. Thanks to the instructor's careful preparation and effort, learning Next.js was really fun and rewarding. Thank you very much!

I am leaving a review because I was very satisfied with the lecture! I am a front-end developer, but I have been stuck on the Page Router stack for a long time. I have tried App Router, but I kept using Page Router because of my familiarity with it... But I thought I would try to follow the latest trends by taking this lecture, and the quality was much higher than I expected. One of the reasons I kept going back to Page Router was that I didn't understand App Router properly. By taking this lecture, I was able to understand how App Router works, and I gained confidence in App Router while working on a small project. If I had any wishes for the next lecture, it would be nice to have a practical (or advanced) version that includes all the settings because sometimes when you set up App Router, the design system or other libraries don't work properly, making it difficult to set up! Thank you!

I don't usually leave course reviews...but I'm so satisfied with this lecture that I'm leaving one. First of all, I've watched several Next lectures, but most of the time, they just tell you how to use it and move on when it's hard to explain in the lectures, so I always wondered why I should use it and what's different. Even when I looked at the official documentation, there were many ambiguous parts, so there were parts that I didn't understand. But after watching this lecture, I understood most of it. First of all, the explanations and materials are easy to understand, and after explaining the theory, they showed it again through practice, so this lecture was the best lecture I've seen by Jeong-Hwan. The previous lectures were good, but I think it's the result of a lot of thought and feedback. I'm really looking forward to the next lecture~~ I think it would be good if Next produced a practical lecture.

Next.js in Bite-Sized Pieces That Stands the Test of the AI Era

From Page Router to App Router in 15 hours

💡 What is Page Router?

The router used before Next.js version 13
provides intuitive and stable functionality

💡 What is the App Router?

The latest router released after Next.js 13
Provides modern features such as streaming and Server Actions

The App Router, newly introduced in Next.js 13, was created to address the shortcomings of the Page Router.
Even in an era where AI writes code for you, it is difficult to properly understand the mechanisms of the App Router without an understanding of the Page Router.

Therefore, this course will quickly cover the Page Router (5 hours) before taking an in-depth look at the App Router (10 hours). Through this process, you will gain a deep understanding of the limitations of the existing Page Router and how the App Router overcomes them.

⚠ But don't get the wrong idea—this course focuses on the App Router.

No more static visual materials
Explore Next.js with intuitive animations

Next.js has many features with complex mechanisms.
As such, they are difficult to explain sufficiently using static visual materials alone.
This course includes intuitive animations like the ones below.

Visual materials related to React Server Components

Visual materials related to the Client Router Cache

As close to real-world scenarios as possible 🚧
A custom backend server provided for hands-on practice

To examine Next.js’s various caching features in a more realistic environment,
we provide a custom-built backend server.

The 5 Principles of the Bite-Sized Series

⚖ Principle 1. Intuitive and Rich Visuals

Just as the same food can taste better when it looks more appetizing,
we believe that even when explaining the same concept, more intuitive and engaging visual materials are easier to understand.

Therefore, I made every effort to create intuitive visual materials, including animations.

⚖ Principle 2. Kindness

When introducing new terms or concepts, I did not give a cursory explanation and move on or assume that you already knew them. I made every effort to ensure that you would not need to Google anything separately while taking the course.

⚖ Principle 3. Plausibility

To keep all of you interested, whenever new content appears during the lecture, I created it with plausibility in mind, always considering whether it was connected to the preceding content and whether you might feel that the flow was suddenly interrupted.

⚖ Principle 4. Good Vocal Projection and Diction

As you will be listening to my voice for a long time, I always strive to maintain good vocal delivery and diction.
To this end, I created the lectures so that you can understand everything even when playing them at double speed.

Give it a listen! 2x playback link

⚖ Principle 5. Communication

We gather in a community exclusively for students, share knowledge and news with one another, and grow together.

Frequently Asked Questions Q&A 💬

Q. Who is this course intended for?

This course is optimized for learners with basic knowledge of React.js and TypeScript.
However, for TypeScript, we will provide additional explanations and supplementary learning materials along the way, so
you should be able to follow the course without difficulty except when it comes to writing types.

Q. I only want to learn the App Router—do I really need to take the Page Router section as well?

If you're experienced with Page Router, you can skip Section 2 and start learning from Section 3 right away.
However, you need to accurately assess whether you have a solid understanding of Page Router's limitations and features.

      Next.js lecture? Lee Jung-hwan. React.js lecture? Lee Jung-hwan. TypeScript lecture? Lee Jung-hwan. It's official. Memorize it. It'll hit your head with visual materials and dictionaries. Still not paying? It's hard to read. If there are concepts that are difficult or confusing to answer the questions below, please pay. It'll help. 1. Please explain the differences between React and Next.js from the perspective of TTV and TTI. 2. Please explain Next.js pre-rendering. 3. Please explain Next.js prefetching. 4. When does Next.js hydration occur? 5. When does Next.js data fetching occur? I didn't know anything, but now I can answer. It kindly feeds you visual materials. If you forget, it'll be brought up for review and hammered into your head. I originally didn't want to leave a review like this, but I couldn't help but leave a review because it was obvious that you were trying to improve the quality of the lectures. The really scary thing is that you can get this much from the lectures, even though it's only the beginning. (Let's stop worrying and go pay. I don't think anyone would do it, right?)
