This paper investigates the efficacy of Next.js as a framework addressing the challenges posed by React.js, particularly in performance, SEO, and equitable web accessibility. By constructing identical websites and web applications in both frameworks, we aim to evaluate the frameworks' behavior under diverse network conditions and capabilities. Beyond quantitative metrics like First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Time to Interactive (TTI), we incorporate qualitative user feedback to assess real-world usability. Our motivation stems from bridging the digital divide exacerbated by client-side rendering (CSR) frameworks and validating investments in modern technologies for businesses and institutions. Employing a novel LLM-assisted migration workflow, this paper also demonstrates the ease with which developers can transition from React.js to Next.js. Our results highlight Next.js's promise of better overall performance, without any degradation in user interaction experience, showcasing its potential to mitigate disparities in web accessibility and foster global network equity, thus highlighting Next.js as a compelling framework for the future of an inclusive web.

翻译：本文研究了Next.js作为应对React.js所带来挑战的框架效能，特别是在性能、搜索引擎优化（SEO）及网络访问公平性方面。通过使用两种框架构建完全相同的网站和网络应用，我们旨在评估这些框架在不同网络条件与能力下的表现。除了首次内容绘制时间（FCP）和可交互时间（TTI）等量化指标外，我们还纳入了定性用户反馈以评估实际可用性。本研究的动机源于弥合因客户端渲染框架而加剧的数字鸿沟，并为企业和机构验证现代技术投资的合理性。通过采用一种新颖的LLM辅助迁移工作流，本文还展示了开发者从React.js迁移至Next.js的便捷性。我们的研究结果突显了Next.js在提升整体性能方面的潜力，且未对用户交互体验造成任何损害，展示了其在缓解网络可访问性差异、促进全球网络公平性方面的潜力，从而表明Next.js是构建未来包容性网络的一个极具吸引力的框架。
