Fetch data directly in Next.js Server Components to execute server-only logic and reduce client-side JavaScript. This approach leverages SSR capabilities to securely retrieve data before rendering the page.

Next.js Server Actions handle data mutations and form submissions securely without creating separate API endpoints. Use them to securely process user input and update backend data directly from client components.

Parallel and intercepting routes manage complex UI states and modal patterns in the Next.js App Router. They allow you to simultaneously render multiple pages and intercept navigation to display content in a modal.

Improve perceived performance in Next.js by streaming HTML using Suspense. This technique progressively sends server-rendered chunks to the client, allowing users to see and interact with content before the entire page finishes loading.

Use Client Components in Next.js when you need to implement user interactivity, state management, or browser APIs. Apply the 'use client' directive to designate components that require client-side hydration.

Yes, the Next.js App Router supports full-stack development for e-commerce sites. You can implement server-side data fetching for product pages, client-side cart interactivity, and Server Actions for cart mutations.
