FeaturesUpgrading Next.js

Upgrading in Next.js

Next.js  is using Edge Runtime  and the dependency is updated very often to get the latest changes.

If you want to upgrade the Edge Runtime version there, follow the steps:

  • Find for "edge-runtime" and "@edge-runtime" versions inside "package.json" files.
  • Upgrade the version numbers to the latest version available (You can find npm semver calculator  helpful to determine what’s the latest version).
  • Perform a pnpm install on the root folder to install them but also update 'pnpm-lock.yaml' properly.
  • Once the new version has been installed, you should to precompile them, entering to packages/next and executing npm run ncc-compiled.
  • Commit all the thing as a single commit, and that’s it!

Since Next.js has a lot of tests, the best way for testing your changes is to make a Next.js draft pull request.

Then, if a test failed, you can reproduce it locally to find the gap.
