SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Next.js routes often render mixed content requiring fast, responsive experiences. Cache Components enable Partial Prerendering (PPR) to mix static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enable cache components in Next.js by setting cacheComponents: true (replacing the old experimental.ppr flag).
  • Support three content types: Static (prerendered at build), Cached (use cache with cacheLife), and Dynamic (Suspense) for fresh data.
  • Provide directives and utilities such as use cache, cacheLife, cacheTag, and updateTag to control caching behavior and invalidation.
  • Example scenario: a dashboard route with an instantly available shell, hourly-updated stats, and user-specific data loaded asynchronously.

Quick Start

Enable cache components in next.config.ts by setting cacheComponents to true and restart the server to apply the change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enable partial prerendering in Next.js routes?

To enable partial prerendering in Next.js, set `cacheComponents: true` in your `next.config.ts` file. This replaces the old experimental.ppr flag and allows Next.js routes to mix static, cached, and dynamic content.

What are Next.js cache components and how do they work?

Next.js cache components enable Partial Prerendering by mixing static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route. Static pages are prerendered at build, cached content uses `use cache` with `cacheLife`, and dynamic content loads via Suspense.

How do I invalidate cached content using use cache and cacheTag in Next.js?

You invalidate cached content in Next.js by applying directives like `use cache`, `cacheTag`, and `updateTag`. These utilities control caching behavior and enforce safe, predictable cache invalidation patterns for your route components.

Does Next.js partial prerendering support dynamic user-specific data?

Yes, Next.js partial prerendering supports dynamic user-specific data by utilizing Suspense boundaries. This allows an instantly available static shell to load while fresh, dynamic content is fetched asynchronously.

When should I use cacheLife vs Suspense for Next.js route content?

Use `cacheLife` with `use cache` for content that should be cached and updated periodically, like hourly stats. Use Suspense for dynamic content requiring fresh data on each request, ensuring safe, predictable performance.
