Next.js 16 Architecture

Architecture patterns for Next.js 16 with Cache Components and feature-based organization.

Core Philosophy

1. Dynamic by default, cache what you choose - Use "use cache" explicitly
2. Fetch in smallest possible component - Don't prop-drill data
3. Keep everything static, stream only dynamic - Use Suspense for dynamic parts
4. Suspense boundaries high - Place in pages/layouts, not feature components
