Next.js 16.5 looks set to bring even more build-time wins, adding to the improvements we've made this year. One leading AI lab saw their build times improve by 𝟯.𝟯𝘅, and build memory usage dropped by 𝟯𝟬%

Love getting feedback from early adopters using canary versions

Only political spectrum I know

Everything in Massachusetts is either Anarchist Bookfair Polycule Union Organizers or Gronk Polymarket Dunkin

@umang i think the benefits to the people right next to it prob outweighed the downsides, but it was pretty rough for commuters in the avenues

[Pete Hunt 🚁 @floydophone]

@umang it was a huge pain in the ass. i don't know how it was measured but 19th in the sunset (now the only way out if you need to go south of town) got super congested and there's already car-free gg park right there. also made bringing kids to the beach much harder

@theslloyd @umang you're lucky you don't have to leave the city regularly. others are less lucky

@theslloyd @umang cyclist?

@swyxio i'm moving back in a few weeks and almost 40, let's do some old man shit

@shuding wait until you try 16.5

[Vercel @vercel]

Today we are launching Vercel Security Review in public beta.

Run vulnerability reviews on every push, and ship fixes in one click with Vercel Agent.

@tomus_sherman @adam_rocska @timneutkens @nextjs yep

[Tim @timneutkens]

We're prototyping native language support in Next.js, starting with Route Handlers and Proxy in Go.

This gives you more options for CPU intensive workloads on the server, alongside your React app.

[Pete Hunt 🚁 @floydophone]

this mostly matches our internal research, except that we have @Rich_Harris's @sveltejs as among the most token efficient frameworks.

[Sébastien Chopin @Atinux]

Great research from Nolan Lawson on the AI cost of JavaScript frameworks, with benchmarks, not vibes.

@nuxt_js comes out strong for the agentic era:

- Fewest tokens of any framework (even fewer than vanilla JS)
- Near the top for cost and time per run
- Second-fewest lines of code to maintain

The cheapest code is the code the agent never has to write.

[Vercel @vercel]

Introducing Vercel CI

• Intelligently skips tasks with Turborepo
• 2-6× faster CI in our internal repositories
• Optimized for agents via Vercel MCP and CLI

After nearly 8 million tasks, we're excited for the future of agentic CI. In beta on all plans.

[Next.js @nextjs]

We cut nearly 2 MB of compressed JavaScript across 𝚟𝟶.𝚊𝚙𝚙 and 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕.𝚌𝚘𝚖 using coding agents and the Next.js Bundle Analyzer.

See how to trace imports, compare snapshots, and use our optimizer skill to reduce your bundles.

[Steven Tey @steventey]

We just upgraded our @dubdotco monorepo to @nextjs 16.4.3 w/ Turbopack, and it's a gamechanger.

Our @vercel builds used to take ~11 mins, and it's now down to ~5 mins 🤯

This is HUGE especially with agent-driven development where halving build times == doubling agent turnaround time.

If you haven't upgraded to next@16 yet, consider this your PSA to do so.
