Navigating Routes in Next.js

Overview of Routing Concepts

  • The discussion begins with a recap of routing concepts in Next.js, including file-based routing, nested routes, dynamic routes, and catch-all routes.
  • Emphasis is placed on the importance of client-side navigation as users typically click links rather than typing URLs directly.

Implementing Client-Side Navigation

  • Introduction to the Link component from Next.js, which extends the HTML anchor element for route navigation.
  • Instructions on importing the Link component into the root page.tsx file and wrapping an H1 tag with it to create clickable navigation elements.

Creating Links to Different Pages

  • Example provided for creating a link to a blog page using the Link component with an href prop set to /blog.
  • A second example demonstrates adding a link to a products page right after the blog link, ensuring smooth navigation between pages.

Adding Home Link and Dynamic Routes

  • Discussion on enhancing user experience by adding a home link in the products list page that directs back to the homepage.
  • Explanation of how to implement dynamic routes for product details using template literals for generating links based on product IDs.

Dynamic Linking and Navigation History

  • Demonstration of binding product IDs dynamically within links using template literals and curly braces.

Client-Side Navigation with the Link Component in Next.js In this video, we dive into implementing client-side navigation in Next.js using the Link component. We start by demonstrating how to create navigation links from the homepage to a blog page and a products page. We also cover adding a home link on the products list page, and then explore dynamic routes by linking product listings to their detailed pages. Moreover, we illustrate how to use template literals for dynamic link generation and the replace prop for modifying navigation history behavior. Follow along to make client-side navigation seamless in your Next.js applications. 📔 GitHub Repo - https://github.com/gopinav/Next.js-15-Tutorials 📘 Frontend Interview Course - https://learn.codevolution.dev/ 💖 Support UPI - https://support.codevolution.dev/ 💖 Support Paypal - https://www.paypal.me/Codevolution 💾 Github - https://github.com/gopinav 📱 Follow Codevolution + Twitter - https://twitter.com/CodevolutionWeb + Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/codevolutionweb 📫 Business - codevolution.business@gmail.com 00:00 File-Based Routing in Next.js 00:26 Implementing Client-Side Navigation with Link Component 01:25 Adding Links to Navigate Between Pages 02:29 Creating Dynamic Routes for Products 03:23 Generating Dynamic Links with Template Literals 04:00 Understanding the Replace Prop in Link Component 04:54 Conclusion and Channel Support
