📢 Update

In v0.43.0, you can now deploy your Next.js app to your AWS account along with the rest of your infrastructure. Similar to the StaticSite construct, 

sst.NextjsSite

 will • build and deploy the app to an S3 bucket; • setup a CloudFront CDN for fast content delivery; • setup Lambda@Edge functions to handle routing, SSG, SSR, API routes, ISR, Image optimization, etc; • configure custom domain; • configure resources outputs as

NEXT_PUBLIC_

environment variables

new NextjsSite(this, "NextSite", {
  path: "path/to/site",
  environment: {
    NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL: api.url,
  },
});

Here are some more examples.

Epic! We're using Vercel at the moment for our NextJS deployments. How does the interaction between SEED and NextJS play out? Will we get preview urls? 🙏

Awesome @Frank. I am hoping this means I can completely ditch amplify and handle Auth inside lambda@edge 👍

@Alex Price yes yes, if you adopt the PR workflow, the deployed url for each pull request will be added as a comment on the PR page

Wicked! Thanks Frank and SST team 😍 😍 😍

Haha, SST is going to vercel a run for its money lol. 😂

@Simon Reilly thanks for pointing me in the right direction man! Behind the scene,

NextjsSite

is partially relying on

@serverless-nextjs/lambda-at-edge

for building the Lambda@Edge part. I’m sure you know better 😁

I was using Vercel since it was now, It was pretty basic then. NextJS was still almost unknown. We’re at a good place to begin with. serverless-nextjs while very helpful is quite outdated, that’s something which if improved would bring amazing gains to the overall experience as well.

outdated as in feature parity wise?

yep. it still depends on webpack 4 last I checked.

I am predicting nextjs is about to get a rust based compiler, (swc) as they hired the creator/maintainer and have been converting their test suites

that’d be amazing, those builds would complete in a jiffy.

Great stuff @Frank

Excited to give this a try -- been fighting amplify for the last week on a newly migrated project (away from Vercel)

We currently use NextJS SSR and have it deployed on AWS EBS, is there any article or docs on how to do this using SST ?

Will try this out, I thought it was just for SSG / ISR, thanks!

I use all three features with success. I've got SSG / ISR needs and some API endpoints

Excited to try it out. Will try and give it a go tonight!
