What are codemods and how do they help with Next.js migration?▼

Codemods are automated code transformation scripts that rewrite deprecated APIs and breaking changes in your Next.js project, ensuring your codebase aligns with the latest framework standards without manual refactoring.

Can I jump multiple major versions when upgrading Next.js?▼

Yes, you can upgrade Next.js across major version jumps, such as migrating from 13 to 14, 15, or 16, by sequentially applying the necessary codemods and dependency adjustments for each breaking change.

Does the Next.js upgrade process work with TypeScript and React?▼

Yes, the upgrade workflow supports Next.js projects built with TypeScript and React, automatically adjusting dependencies and applying codemods to maintain compatibility with your existing stack.

How do I validate my Next.js build after applying migration codemods?▼

After applying migration codemods and bumping dependencies, the workflow validates your Next.js build and runs tests to ensure the upgraded application compiles successfully and maintains runtime stability.

What happens if my Next.js dependencies are outdated before an upgrade?▼
