nextjs - 💡(How to fix) Fix Docs: Chapter 10 learning course Partial Prerendering should be updated in accordance with cacheComponents from Next.js v16. [4 comments, 4 participants]

TL;DR

The documentation for Next.js 16+ should be updated to include guidance on using Cache Components, particularly in relation to Partial Prerendering (PPR) and data caching.

Guidance

• Review the existing documentation for App Router learning course (Chapter 10 — Partial Prerendering) to understand the current use case for PPR.
• Consider creating a new section or updating the PPR chapter to include information on Cache Components, such as when to use them instead of fetch caching, how they interact with PPR and streaming, and best practices.
• Reach out to the core team to clarify their intended direction for Cache Components and ensure consistency with the new mental model introduced in the PPR documentation.
• Contribute a use case example for Cache Components, once the core team's direction is understood.

Notes

The lack of documentation on Cache Components may lead to confusion among developers, and updating the documentation will help to provide clarity on their usage.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Contribute to the documentation by creating a new section or updating the existing PPR chapter, while awaiting clarification from the core team on their intended direction for Cache Components.
