Deploy and Host Next.js on Railway

Next.js is a React-based web framework that enables developers to build fast, production-ready applications with features such as server-side rendering, static site generation, API routes, and optimized performance out of the box. It is commonly used for modern web applications that require both frontend and backend capabilities in a single framework.

About Hosting Next.js

Hosting Next.js involves building the application, serving pre-rendered pages, and optionally running server-side logic such as API routes or middleware. Depending on the configuration, Next.js can run as a static site or as a full server-rendered application. A proper hosting setup must handle environment variables, build-time compilation, runtime execution, and scalability. Railway simplifies this by handling the build and runtime separation automatically, allowing developers to focus on application logic instead of infrastructure setup.
