About Next.js and TypeScript

Next.js is an open-source React framework created by Vercel for building server-side rendered (SSR) and statically generated web applications. It simplifies the development process by providing built-in features like automatic code splitting, server-side rendering, and route pre-fetching. Next.js also offers a wide range of plugins and a powerful API for extending its functionality.

TypeScript is an open-source programming language developed by Microsoft. It's a superset of JavaScript, meaning that it builds on top of JavaScript by adding static typing and other features to help developers write more robust and scalable code.
