Summary

Automated migration from Next.js to vinext, a Vite-based Next.js reimplementation.

  • Handles compatibility scanning, package replacement, Vite config generation, and ESM conversion with a single vinext init command or manual fallback steps
  • Supports both App Router and Pages Router; existing app/, pages/, and next.config.js work unchanged — no application code modifications required
  • Includes native Cloudflare Workers deployment via vinext deploy with direct access to bindings (D1, R2, KV, AI) through cloudflare:workers imports, plus Nitro integration for other platforms (Vercel, Netlify, AWS, Deno Deploy)
  • Provides compatibility checking, troubleshooting guidance, and known limitations documentation to surface issues before and during migration

Migrate Next.js to vinext

vinext reimplements the Next.js API surface on Vite. Existing app/, pages/, and next.config.js work as-is — migration is a package swap, config generation, and ESM conversion. No changes to application code required.

FIRST: Verify Next.js Project

Confirm next is in dependencies or devDependencies in package.json. If not found, STOP — this skill does not apply.

Detect the package manager from the lockfile:

Lockfile Manager Install Uninstall
pnpm-lock.yaml pnpm pnpm add pnpm remove
yarn.lock yarn yarn add yarn remove
bun.lockb / bun.lock bun bun add bun remove
package-lock.json or none npm npm install npm uninstall

Detect the router: if an app/ directory exists at root or under src/, it's App Router. If only pages/ exists, it's Pages Router. Both can coexist.
