To Reproduce

The repo README has instructions on how to repro locally. When clicking the "Refresh" button at the bottom of the viewport it should refresh in place. Since 16.1.1-canary.28 it has started scrolling the page to the top.

I've deployed examples of the expected behavior here:

And "current", assuming it'll continue to happen when next@canary graduates to v16.2.0

TL;DR

Downgrade to [email protected] to avoid the scrolling issue when refreshing the page.

Guidance

  • Review the changes between v16.1.1-canary.27 and v16.1.1-canary.28 to identify the potential cause of the regression.
  • Test the application with different versions of next to confirm the issue is specific to versions after v16.1.1-canary.27.
  • Check the React and React DOM versions used in the application, as changes in these libraries may also be contributing to the issue.
  • Consider opening an issue with the Next.js team to report the regression and seek a permanent fix.

Notes

The provided links to the code and examples demonstrate the issue, but without further investigation, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause. Downgrading to a previous version may be a temporary workaround.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Downgrade to [email protected] to avoid the scrolling issue, as this version is known to work as expected.
