Our application is currently using the Pages Router in Next.js. To take advantage of the latest features and improvements, we should migrate to the App Router. This migration will modernize our codebase, align with best practices, and enable features such as:
Improved server components support
Enhanced routing flexibility
Built-in layouts and nested routing
Streaming and suspense capabilities
Tasks
Analyze Current Implementation
Identify all pages and components currently relying on the Pages Router.
Document dependencies and potential areas of complexity during migration.
Plan the Migration
Define folder structure for the App Router (e.g., app/ directory).
Plan a phased migration strategy, if possible, to reduce downtime.
Implement App Router
Refactor components and pages to adhere to the App Router structure.
Ensure new routing conventions, such as nested layouts and loaders, are applied.
New features of the App Router are leveraged where applicable.
