Optimize Next.js Builds for production + my secret project
|
Hey friend, I've been heads down building this thing for months, and I'm both nervous and *stoked* to finally share it with you. It is The Modern Full Stack Next.js Course which is dropping on November 25th π₯. It is a course that teaches you to build and deploy production-ready Next.js apps. Less than 10 days to go, WILD !! π¬ Look, I know there are tons of courses out there, but I wanted to do something different. I actually built my own *custom course platform* from scratch because, well, I'm picky about how I teach and want to give you the best learning experience π
But wait, Why Full Stack? I think the world has truly shifted towards full stack developers. The whole "I'm just a frontend dev" or "I only do backend" thing? It's becoming less and less relevant. So, knowing the big picture can truly make a difference in your career. Oh! One more thing, π¨ I'll be sharing exclusive bonus Next.js content to the Waitlist that I don't share anywhere else. I'd definitely recommend you to join the waitlist just so you don't miss out.
