Next.js 13.4 marks stability for App Router and adds support for Server Actions

The latest release of Next.js, version 13.4, marks a significant milestone for the platform's App Router. This has been in development for the past six months, and with the latest release, it is now considered stable and ready for production use.

App Router is a foundational feature of Next.js, providing developers with a way to handle routing in their applications. With it, developers can create nested routes and layouts, simplify data fetching, and implement streaming and suspense. Additionally, App Router comes with built-in SEO support, making it easier for developers to optimize their applications for search engines.

Next.js 13.4 includes Turbopack, a new beta feature that provides developers with a faster and more stable local development server. Turbopack is designed to help developers save time during the development process by providing a more streamlined experience.

The new Next.js also introduces Server Actions, an alpha feature that allows developers to mutate data on the server without requiring any client-side JavaScript.

Overall, Next.js 13.4 is a significant release for the platform, providing developers with a stable and powerful App Router, as well as a range of new features and improvements. Developers can now start adopting these features in their production applications, knowing that they are built on a solid foundation.
