Following previous article i’ve decide to create a small table of the pros and cons of creating a website in Next.js:

ProsCons
Server-Side Rendering (SSR): Enhances SEO and improves initial load time for your website in Next.js.Build Times for Large Sites: Large websites in Next.js with many pages can experience slow build times.
Static Site Generation (SSG): Generates static HTML at build time for fast performance on a website in Next.js.Complexity for Simple Projects: Overkill for basic static websites, adding unnecessary complexity.
Automatic Code Splitting: Improves performance by only loading necessary code for the current page of your website in Next.js.Learning Curve: New concepts such as SSR and SSG might require a steeper learning curve, especially for beginners.
API Routes: Built-in support for backend logic and API requests within the same website in Next.js project.Limited Webpack Control: Advanced developers might feel restricted by limited control over Webpack configuration.
SEO Optimization: Server-rendered pages ensure better SEO performance for your website in Next.js.Handling Authentication: Managing complex authentication flows can require additional third-party tools or custom setup.
Fast Refresh and Hot Reloading: Smooth development experience with instant updates while building your website in Next.js.Dynamic Routing SEO Challenges: Dynamic pages rendered client-side can present SEO issues if not properly managed.

This table gives a quick overview of the benefits and limitations of creating a website in Next.js, allowing you to evaluate if it's the right framework for your needs.
