next-connect
A TypeScript-ready, minimal router and middleware layer for Next.js, Edge API Routes, App Router, Middleware, and getServerSideProps.
What is next-connect?
next-connect is a minimal, promise-based router and middleware layer built for Next.js applications. It enables developers to structure API routes, edge functions, and server-side logic with an Express.js-like syntax while being optimized for serverless and edge environments. It solves the need for a lightweight, performant routing solution within Next.js's ecosystem.
Next.js developers building API routes, edge functions, middleware, or server-rendered pages who want a structured, middleware-based approach to handling requests.
Developers choose next-connect for its performance advantages over Express.js in serverless contexts, its seamless integration with Next.js features like Edge API Routes and App Router, and its TypeScript-first design with familiar middleware patterns.
