SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Developers migrating to or working with Turbopack in Next.js 16 face configuration changes, webpack loader incompatibilities, CSS ordering differences, and build failures that are hard to diagnose without deep bundler knowledge. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Configuration Guidance: Set up top-level turbopack config in next.config, including resolveAlias, resolveExtensions, and custom rules for loaders like @svgr/webpack. - Webpack Migration: Map common webpack loaders (css-loader, sass-loader, file-loader, raw-loader) to Turbopack built-ins or equivalents, and know when to fall back to webpack. - Build Diagnostics: Troubleshoot production build failures, oversized bundles, environment boundary errors, and profile HMR or builds with NEXT_TURBOPACK_TRACING. - Use Case: Your Next.js build fails after upgrading to Next.js 16 because experimental.turbopack moved and a custom webpack loader is unsupported. This Skill walks you through the config migration and loader replacement. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to help migrate your next.config webpack customizations to Turbopack top-level config in Next.js 16.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure Turbopack in Next.js 16?

In Next.js 16, Turbopack config lives at the top level of next.config as `turbopack`, moved from `experimental.turbopack`. Use it to set resolveAlias, resolveExtensions, and custom rules for loaders.

How do I migrate webpack loaders to Turbopack?

Most common loaders have built-in equivalents: CSS, Sass, PostCSS, and static assets work natively. For loaders like @svgr/webpack, use `turbopack.rules` in next.config. If no equivalent exists, fall back with `bundler: 'webpack'`.

Turbopack vs webpack: what are the differences?

Turbopack is written in Rust with constant-time HMR, native React Server Components support, and built-in CSS handling, while webpack has a larger loader and plugin ecosystem. Turbopack is the default bundler in Next.js 16; webpack remains supported.

Why does my Next.js build fail with Turbopack?

Common causes include leftover `webpack()` functions in next.config, invalid loaders in turbopack.rules, Node.js built-ins like `fs` imported in client or edge bundles, and missing resolveAlias entries previously handled by webpack.

Does Turbopack support Sass and CSS Modules?

Yes. CSS Modules work out of the box with `.module.css` files, and Sass compiles natively after installing the `sass` package. PostCSS config files are read automatically, and Tailwind CSS v4 works with zero configuration.

When should I use webpack instead of Turbopack?

Use webpack when you rely on custom loaders with no Turbopack equivalent, complex plugins like ModuleFederationPlugin, or unsupported features like custom externals functions. Set `bundler: 'webpack'` in next.config to opt out.
