Next.js Runtime

This package handles the build process and creates the runtime environment for Next.js sites on Netlify. You should not normally need to install it yourself, as it is used automatically during builds of Next.js sites. See the docs for using Next.js on Netlify for more details.

Next.js is supported natively on Netlify, and in most cases you will not need to install or configure anything. This repo includes the packages used to support Next.js on Netlify.

Prerequisites

• Next.js 13.5 or later
• Node.js 18 or later
• The latest version of the Netlify CLI

Deploying

If you build on Netlify, the Next.js Runtime will work with no additional configuration.

Manually installing the Next.js Runtime

The Next.js Runtime installs automatically for new Next.js sites on Netlify. You can also install it manually in the following ways:

From the UI (Recommended)

You can go to the UI and choose the site to install the Next.js Runtime on. This method is recommended because you will benefit from auto-upgrades to important fixes and feature updates.

From npm

npm install -D @netlify/plugin-nextjs

...then add the following to your netlify.toml file:

[[plugins]]
  package = "@netlify/plugin-nextjs"

This method is recommended if you wish to pin the Next.js Runtime to a specific version.

v4

If you are using Next.js 10-13.4 or Node.js < 18, you must use v4 of the Next.js Runtime.

If you are still using v4, you can find its README here and the v4 Runtime docs here.

Upgrading from v4 to v5

To upgrade from v4 to v5, please visit the v5 documentation.
