FAQPage Schema
How do I set up authentication with proxy.ts in Next.js 16?

Proxy.ts authentication in Next.js 16 uses server-side access-control patterns to protect routes. The Skill provides proxy.ts templates and patterns for implementing authentication that integrate with App Router, enabling you to secure protected routes and manage access tokens server-side without exposing secrets to the client.

What's the best way to structure data fetching and caching in Next.js 16 apps?

Data fetching and caching in Next.js 16 align with React Server Components and server rendering. This Skill covers fetching strategies that leverage the App Router and server components to cache data efficiently, reducing redundant requests and improving performance across your application architecture.

How do I organize server and client components in Next.js 16?

Next.js 16 App Router distinguishes server and client components through file structure and the 'use client' directive. This Skill provides recommended patterns for component organization—defining which routes and components run server-side versus client-side—to maximize rendering efficiency and maintain clean architecture.

Can I use Next.js 16 App Router for a dashboard with protected routes and real-time updates?

Yes. Next.js 16 App Router supports protected routes through proxy.ts authentication and server components handle real-time data fetching. This Skill covers the complete architecture—combining authenticated access patterns, dynamic routes, and data-fetching strategies—to build scalable dashboards with live analytics.

What are the limitations of server components for real-time features in Next.js?

Server components render on the server and cannot directly listen to client-side events or browser APIs. This Skill shows how to handle async params and combine server components with client components strategically—using proxy.ts for state synchronization—to balance real-time interactivity with server-rendering benefits.
