Next.js 16 Key Changes

proxy.ts (Replaces middleware.ts)

The middleware.ts file is deprecated. Use proxy.ts instead:

// proxy.ts (at project root or src/)
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server'
import type { NextRequest } from 'next/server'

export function proxy(request: NextRequest) {
  // Runs on Node.js runtime (NOT Edge)
  return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/home', request.url))
}
