Question 1

Is React Next Boilerplate still maintained?

Accepted Answer

No, it's deprecated. The README explicitly warns that it's no longer maintained and recommends migrating to a new repository for updates and support.

Question 2

How do I migrate from React Next Boilerplate to another starter?

Accepted Answer

Start by reviewing the new boilerplate's structure and dependencies. Since this one is deprecated, you'll need to manually update or replace libraries like Redux Sagas and i18next during the migration process.

Question 3

Redux Sagas vs React Query for Next.js state management?

Accepted Answer

Redux Sagas handles complex side effects well but adds boilerplate. React Query simplifies data fetching with caching. This boilerplate uses Sagas, so if you prefer React Query, significant refactoring is required.

Question 4

Does this boilerplate support Next.js 13 or the app router?

Accepted Answer

Likely not, as it's deprecated and based on older Next.js versions. Check the package.json for dependencies, but consider modern alternatives for app router compatibility.

Question 5

How to add a new language with i18next in this setup?

Accepted Answer

The boilerplate uses next-i18next; add translation files in the locales directory and configure namespaces in the i18n config file, following the existing structure for SSR support.

Question 6

What are good alternatives to React Next Boilerplate?

Accepted Answer

Consider Vercel's official Next.js templates, Create Next App with custom configs, or community-maintained starters like NextJS Boilerplate, which are actively updated and support newer features.
