SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Cache Components enable Partial Prerendering (PPR) - mix static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route.

Core Features & Use Cases

Enable cache components to opt into partial prerendering across routes.
Use the 'use cache' directive to control caching granularity at page, component, or function level.
Leverage cacheLife, cacheTag, and updateTag for fine-grained invalidation and revalidation.
Real-world use: pre-render a static shell with cached data and dynamic sections.

Quick Start

Install Next.js, enable cacheComponents in next.config and annotate functions with 'use cache' to start caching relevant content.

FAQPage Schema

How do I enable partial prerendering in Next.js to mix static and dynamic content?▼

To enable partial prerendering in Next.js, enable cacheComponents in your next.config file and use the 'use cache' directive to selectively cache static and dynamic content across routes.

How do I control caching granularity for specific Next.js server components?▼

Control caching granularity in Next.js server components by annotating specific pages, components, or functions with the 'use cache' directive to define exactly what content gets cached.

How do I invalidate and revalidate cached data in Next.js cache components?▼

Invalidate and revalidate cached data in Next.js by leveraging cacheLife, cacheTag, and updateTag directives for fine-grained control over when cached content expires or updates.

What is the best way to pre-render a static shell with dynamic sections in a Next.js app?▼

The best way to pre-render a static shell with dynamic sections is using Next.js cache components to manage static cached data while allowing specific route sections to remain dynamic.

Do I need to configure next.config to use cache components in Next.js?▼

Yes, you must set cacheComponents to true in your next.config file to opt into partial prerendering before applying in-code directives like 'use cache' to manage your route caching.

Why use cache components instead of standard static generation for Next.js routes?▼

Use cache components instead of standard static generation when you need to mix static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route to optimize web performance without sacrificing real-time data.
