Vercel

Optimised hosting for Next.js with a global edge network.

What is Vercel?

Vercel is the home of Next.js and offers hosting tuned perfectly for it, with a global edge network. Deployments run fully automatically straight from the Git repository, and every pull request gets its own preview environment with a real URL. That makes it easy to review and discuss changes together, long before they go live. Because the team behind Next.js also builds the platform, new framework features usually work here first without any fiddling.

How we use it

For Next.js projects Vercel is often our default route to production, because there is barely anything between a Git push and a live URL. We use the per-pull-request preview environments to show you changes directly, without anything real wobbling. When time-to-launch matters and you do not want to run your own infrastructure, this is a very direct path.

Good to know

Vercel is wonderfully convenient, but with heavy traffic on serverless functions it can get noticeably expensive. It pays to know early which routes are served statically and which cost compute on every call.
