ADR-001: Next.js 16

Status: Accepted

Context

We need a modern, performant, and developer-friendly React framework for the cur8d starter template.

Decision

We chose Next.js 16 (App Router) with Turbopack and React 19.

Rationale

Next.js provides first-class support for React Server Components, Streaming SSR, and built-in optimization. Version 16 brings cutting-edge performance improvements, Turbopack dev acceleration, and seamless React 19 integration.

Consequences

All page routing and layouts follow App Router conventions. Server Components are used by default, and client-side interactivity is isolated in "use client" leaf components.
