I wrote a blog post the other day about how Next.js Middleware can be useful for working around some of the restrictions imposed by server components. This led to some fun discussions in the world about whether this was a reasonable approach or if Next.js DX was just.
I kept hearing good things about Next.js so I decided to give it a shot for my project. I got a couple of pages setup then I ran into a case where I needed something done on the client. I looked through the documentation and checked several examples for the current version, trying everything they said to do to get client side running and it just didn’t work. I wasted about a day and half on that before just going back to create react app and zooming past where I got blocked the same day I started anew.
