A deep dive into the architecture and benefits of using server components in React 18+.

React Server Components

React Server Components (RSC) let you render components entirely on the server without sending their JS to the client.

✨ Benefits

  • Smaller client bundle
  • Secure data access (e.g., DB queries)
  • Ideal for static and dynamic hybrid pages

RSC is now stable in frameworks like Next.js 13+ (App Router).
