next-lite-framework
Advanced tools
A lightweight, high-performance alternative to Next.js built with esbuild.
# Create a new Next-Lite project
npx create-next-lite my-app
# Or install in an existing project
npm install next-lite-framework
Create a file in the pages directory:
// pages/index.jsx
import React from 'react';
import { Head } from 'next-lite-framework';
export default function HomePage() {
return (
<>
<Head>
<title>Home | Next-Lite</title>
</Head>
<div>
<h1>Welcome to Next-Lite!</h1>
<p>A lightweight alternative to Next.js</p>
</div>
</>
);
}
Create a file in the pages/api directory:
// pages/api/hello.js
export default function handler(req, res) {
res.status(200).json({ message: 'Hello from Next-Lite!' });
}
npx next-lite dev
npx next-lite build
npx next-lite start
Next-Lite uses file-based routing similar to Next.js:
pages/index.jsx → /pages/about.jsx → /aboutpages/blog/index.jsx → /blogpages/blog/[slug].jsx → /blog/:slugimport { useFetch, useSWR } from 'next-lite-framework';
// Basic data fetching
function Profile() {
const { data, error, loading } = useFetch('/api/user');
if (loading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;
return <div>Hello {data.name}!</div>;
}
// SWR-like data fetching
function Dashboard() {
const { data, error, loading, mutate } = useSWR('/api/dashboard', url =>
fetch(url).then(res => res.json())
);
return (
<div>
<button onClick={() => mutate()}>Refresh</button>
{/* ... */}
</div>
);
}
// pages/api/user.js
export default function handler(req, res) {
const { method } = req;
switch (method) {
case 'GET':
res.status(200).json({ name: 'John Doe' });
break;
case 'POST':
res.status(200).json({ message: 'User created' });
break;
default:
res.status(405).json({ message: 'Method not allowed' });
}
}
import styles from './Button.module.css';
function Button({ children }) {
return (
<button className={styles.button}>
{children}
</button>
);
}
import { Image } from 'next-lite-framework';
function Avatar() {
return (
<Image
src="/avatar.png"
alt="User Avatar"
width={50}
height={50}
layout="responsive"
/>
);
}
import { Head } from 'next-lite-framework';
function Page() {
return (
<>
<Head>
<title>My Page</title>
<meta name="description" content="Page description" />
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" />

{/* Page content */}
</>
);

import { Link, useRouter } from 'next-lite-framework';
function Navigation() {
const router = useRouter();
return (
<nav>
<Link href="/">Home</Link>
<Link href="/about">About</Link>
<button onClick={() => router.push('/contact')}>Contact</button>
</nav>
);
