SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Next.js routes often render mixed content requiring fast, responsive experiences. Cache Components enable Partial Prerendering (PPR) to mix static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enable cache components in Next.js by setting cacheComponents: true (replacing the old experimental.ppr flag).
  • Support three content types: Static (prerendered at build), Cached (use cache with cacheLife), and Dynamic (Suspense) for fresh data.
  • Provide directives and utilities such as use cache, cacheLife, cacheTag, and updateTag to control caching behavior and invalidation.
  • Example scenario: a dashboard route with an instantly available shell, hourly-updated stats, and user-specific data loaded asynchronously.

Quick Start

Enable cache components in next.config.ts by setting cacheComponents to true and restart the server to apply the change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enable partial prerendering in Next.js routes?▼

To enable partial prerendering in Next.js, set `cacheComponents: true` in your `next.config.ts` file. This replaces the old experimental.ppr flag and allows Next.js routes to mix static, cached, and dynamic content.

What are Next.js cache components and how do they work?▼

Next.js cache components enable Partial Prerendering by mixing static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route. Static pages are prerendered at build, cached content uses `use cache` with `cacheLife`, and dynamic content loads via Suspense.

How do I invalidate cached content using use cache and cacheTag in Next.js?▼

You invalidate cached content in Next.js by applying directives like `use cache`, `cacheTag`, and `updateTag`. These utilities control caching behavior and enforce safe, predictable cache invalidation patterns for your route components.

Does Next.js partial prerendering support dynamic user-specific data?▼

Yes, Next.js partial prerendering supports dynamic user-specific data by utilizing Suspense boundaries. This allows an instantly available static shell to load while fresh, dynamic content is fetched asynchronously.

When should I use cacheLife vs Suspense for Next.js route content?▼

Use `cacheLife` with `use cache` for content that should be cached and updated periodically, like hourly stats. Use Suspense for dynamic content requiring fresh data on each request, ensuring safe, predictable performance.
