Official Next.js Frontend Framework Support for Shopware 6
As Shopware continues to evolve as an API-first platform, it would be highly beneficial to offer official support and tooling for Next.js as a first-class frontend framework option. Next.js brings powerful features like:
Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) and Static Site Generation (SSG) for blazing-fast performance
Built-in API routes and middleware for seamless integration
React ecosystem benefits with hooks, server components, and a vibrant community
Easy deployment on platforms like Vercel, enabling edge caching and global CDN
Simplified developer experience with TypeScript support and modern tooling
By providing an official Next.js storefront starter kit, sample components, and API client libraries, Shopware could attract React developers and modernize frontend experiences. This would complement the existing Twig-based storefront, offering more flexibility and performance for enterprise customers looking to build scalable, headless storefronts with React.
