When integrating with Next.js, follow framework-specific patterns carefully and stay updated with API changes to ensure proper server-side rendering and optimal code.
When integrating with Next.js, follow framework-specific patterns carefully and stay updated with API changes to ensure proper server-side rendering and optimal code.
For SSR styling with libraries like Emotion:
// ✅ DO: Call createEmotionServer immediately after cache creation with explanatory comment
const cache = createEmotionCache();
// The createEmotionServer has to be called directly after the cache creation due to the side effect of cache.compat = true,
// otherwise the styles won't be properly placed in the head tag
const { extractCriticalToChunks } = createEmotionServer(cache);
// ❌ DON'T: Call functions without understanding sequence dependencies
const cache = createEmotionCache();
// Other code...
const { extractCriticalToChunks } = createEmotionServer(cache); // Too late, SSR styling will be broken
Additionally, regularly review the official Next.js documentation to remove deprecated patterns (like unnecessary passHref props in newer versions) and adopt current recommended practices.
