The Next.js 16 release is here and Netlify is ready. Deploy the latest version, including Turbopack, React Compiler, and enhanced caching APIs, with zero configuration.
- Turbopack (stable): Up to 10× faster Fast Refresh and 2-5× faster builds
- React Compiler (stable): Automatic memoization for smoother re-renders
- Improved caching APIs: revalidateTag with cacheLife profile argument for Stale-While-Revalidate behavior and Server Actions-only updateTag to immediately refresh cached data
Template update We’ve updated the Next Platform Starter to v16, showcasing Turbopack and the new caching APIs in action. In our tests, the project saw a 2.8× faster next build with Turbopack. Upgrading to v16 on Netlify If you’re upgrading from v15, no Netlify configuration changes are required. Teams that have opted out of automatic updates for Netlify’s OpenNext adapter will need to manually upgrade, or simply opt back in to receive automatic updates. Resources
