    ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration)

    A Next.js feature that updates static pages after deployment without rebuilding the entire site.

    Why it matters

    • Combines benefits of static and dynamic rendering
    • Keeps content fresh without full rebuilds
    • Reduces build times for large sites

    When to use

    • When content updates periodically but not in real-time
    • For e-commerce product pages or news articles
    • When you have too many pages for full static generation

    Common mistakes

    • Setting revalidation times too short or too long
    • Not understanding the stale-while-revalidate pattern
    • Using ISR when SSR would be more appropriate
