Wait, Next.js would be useful for pure client SPAs? I built a prototype for the SSR and loved it, but it didn’t occur to me it could be used for client apps too...

Does it need to be served from a Node.js environment or can it be used as a bundler and be served from other servers (eg Django or Rails)?

If you're building a dashboard-like SPA it's not really suitable, because every page is its own component, so you can't do nested layouts or routing.

You actually can build nested layouts in Next.js — see https://adamwathan.me/2019/10/17/persistent-layout-patterns-...

Next.js can output static pages now on build time, so you don't necessarily need to use SSR unless you're hydrating data on the server.
