Next.js 15 with Jimmy Lai and Tim Neutkens

Software Engineering Daily

Next.js is an open source JavaScript framework developed by Vercel. It’s built on top of React and is designed to streamline web application development using server-side rendering and static site generation. The framework’s handling of both frontend and backend tasks, along with features like API routes and file-based routing, have made it an increasingly popular choice in the web dev community.

Next.js 15 just released in October of 2024 and introduces significant upgrades, including enhanced integration of Turbopack and support for React 19.

Jimmy Lai is a Software Engineering Manager at Next.js and Tim Neutkens is the Tech Lead for Next.js and Turbopack. They join the show to talk about Next.js and what’s new in version 15.
