FAQPage Schema
How do I speed up Next.js dev startup and hot module replacement?▼

To speed up Next.js dev startup and HMR, use Turbopack as the default dev bundler, which applies incremental bundling and filesystem caching to significantly reduce cold starts and improve feedback loops in large apps.

Does Turbopack work with legacy Webpack plugins in Next.js?▼

Turbopack may not work with all legacy Webpack plugins, but you can fallback to Webpack in your Next.js project to resolve compatibility issues or handle specific plugin requirements that Turbopack does not yet support.

What Next.js version is required to use Turbopack for local development?▼

Turbopack requires Next.js 16 or higher to function as the default dev bundler. In these versions, you can run next dev to automatically enable incremental bundling and filesystem caching for rapid iteration.

Can I toggle between Turbopack and Webpack for my Next.js dev server?▼

Yes, you can toggle between Turbopack and Webpack for your Next.js dev server. This allows you to leverage Turbopack for fast startup while retaining the ability to fallback to Webpack for legacy plugins or troubleshooting.

What are the limitations of using Turbopack for production builds?▼

Turbopack is currently focused on accelerating local development startup and HMR. You must carefully consider production build behavior and version-specific limitations, potentially relying on Webpack fallback for final production bundling.
