Summary

Gearbox, a five-person team, crafts stunning sites and apps while empowering clients to retain control over their brand through a "dev-first approach". They use Next.js and Vercel for their solutions, even for clients who may not be ready for a headless stack. The team initially chose Gatsby but eventually found Next.js and Vercel more efficient and powerful. They value security, using Vercel's Edge Network to manage blog redirects and replicate content globally. With Vercel Preview Deployments, they can get to production faster and review code more efficiently. Gearbox has been all-in on Vercel and Next.js for almost three years, reshaping their development workflow and experiencing benefits with each incremental migration.
