The Next.js codemods are 🔥🔥🔥🔥 exactly how a migration of breaking changes should happen. Branch, run the codemods, check the diffs for anything crazy, branch deploy on Vercel and test! Simple.

I've built a UI Wireframe KIT in Framer. 14 Categories, 45+ Sections and 2 Pages examples. It's the timesaver I wish I had to save hours when working new projects. Want it? 👇 Like, RT and comment "Want kit" and I'll DM it to you (must follow).

Just moved back to VSCode+Copilot from Cursor. GitHub Copilot had come a long way since I left, but most impressive is the new Copilot Workspace, projects on steroids.

Hey Guillermo Rauch do you have any really good examples of ISR on Vercel/Next and PPR with personalisation i can use in a presentation to our board?

Hey Cursor in the latest update the minimise /expand OSX functions have gone if you have a single or multiple screens. Ive Added a screenshot of the new osx extended screen view too.

If Groq Inc put Meta Llama 4 17b Scout on specdec it will be stupidly FAST, it’s parsing 4 page documents and returning very very accurate structured output in 3.8s vs Llama 3.3 70b on Specdec at 1.7s. Quick 1 line change using Vercel Ai SDK on Next.js and pushed to production

It’s absolutely mental that developers apply for roles but won’t show any previous examples of work, or state they have X years experience on a specific framework with no public code!

Never thought I’d be able to hire engineers directly via X. After I tweeted we was looking for 2x Next.js devs and Guillermo Rauch reposted we got 100s of applicants and ended up hiring 3x ❤️❤️❤️

Highly recommend using a project-state.mdc file in Cursor . It really does increase productivity and precise actions based on steps needed. Let alone using Neon - Serverless Postgres MCP to check state of the DB #cursor #mcp #neondb
