Building Next.js from a README specification file
Press Space for next Tweet
I started the @nextjs you know today from a ππ΄π°π³πΌπ΄.ππ specification. That was the singular commit that set it on the trajectory you see today. We proceeded to furiously write code for weeks as we saw a unique window to disrupt the React ecosystem, which primarily consisted of "boilerplate" repos and static-only tooling. I now believe most software (and companies) will start out as markdown files, but it's agents that will be doing the furious coding. And the releasing. And the maintenance. I'm pretty happy that the API we laid out is as relevant as ever today. It's simple, filesystem focused, and its principles remain unchanged. http://v0-nextjs-hello-world.vercel.app
