Demystifying Next.js Routing

Next.js introduced the App Router to simplify nested layouts and server components...

File-based Routing

Each folder in the app/ directory maps to a route in your application.

Layouts

You can now define layouts with ease:

export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
  return (
    <html>
      <body>{children}</body>
    </html>
  );
}

Conclusion

The App Router brings powerful new paradigms to Next.js applications.
