Proxy.ts replaces middleware.ts to define an explicit Node.js boundary in Next.js 16 App Router. The Skill provides migration templates showing how to move routing logic, authentication, and request interception from middleware to proxy.ts for clearer deployment semantics across Vercel, Cloudflare Workers, and self-hosted environments.

Server Components render on the server and reduce client bundle size; Server Actions let you call backend functions directly from forms and events without API boilerplate. This Skill covers data fetching, mutations, validation, and error handling patterns for both, plus async route parameters like params and searchParams.

The 'use cache' directive in Next.js 16 enables opt-in caching for components, functions, and entire routes. This Skill provides patterns for applying cache directives to server components and async functions, including cache revalidation strategies and integration with updated caching APIs.

Turbopack is the default bundler in Next.js 16 and delivers faster builds and local development. This Skill covers Turbopack configuration and defaults, showing how to leverage its performance benefits without manual setup in most projects.

Parallel routes in Next.js 16 require a default.js file in each slot to handle unmatched routes. This Skill explains the parallel routes architecture, when default.js is required, and provides templates for common patterns across multiple route segments.

Yes. This Skill includes production-ready patterns that work across Vercel, Cloudflare Workers, AWS, and self-hosted deployments. It covers platform-specific considerations for server components, server actions, route handlers, and proxy.ts configuration.
