React Server Components in Next.js

If you’ve been following the React Ecosystem and watching where full-stack frameworks like Next.js are headed, React Server Components are one of the most talked-about developments. They're generating a lot of excitement among developers, and are poised to change the way we build web apps.

Ultimately, React Server Components aim to improve your overall web app performance by moving the work of rendering to the server. In this talk, we'll explore what React Server Components are, how they differ from traditional server-side rendering (SSR), and how you can start using them in Next.js to improve the end-user experience.
