Implementing infinite scroll in Next.js with Server Actions
Blog post from LogRocket
Infinite scrolling, a common tactic in content-heavy platforms for enhancing user experience by loading data in chunks, can now be efficiently implemented directly in Next.js without relying on external libraries like SWR or Tanstack Query, thanks to Server Actions in Next.js 13 and beyond. This approach allows developers to fetch initial data server-side, improving performance and rendering content immediately. The article details setting up a Next.js application using Create Next App, organizing the project structure with TypeScript, and configuring components for displaying data using Tailwind CSS. It also explores using a dummy REST API for data loading, managing state with hooks, and implementing infinite scrolling via the JavaScript Intersection Observer API or the react-intersection-observer library. The tutorial provides insights into building scalable and responsive applications with Next.js by integrating infinite scroll, enhancing user engagement by seamlessly loading additional content.
