Understanding React Server Components and NextJS

We will discuss the various features introduced in the new paradigm of React Server Components, and how NextJS helps us in building the best web application which are highly optimised with these features.

This talk will include:

A very brief History of React and Client Side Rendering

Introduction to SSR

How RSC is a new paradigm and an improvement on SSR

How to properly use RSC in your web application

What to put on server and what NOT to put on server.

I believe this talk will help the listeners understand the basis behind Server Components and make sense of how the latest versions, React 18 and NextJS 14 (with App router) work.
