Safedep.io Migrates 3,000 Pages from Astro to Next.js 16 Boosting Navigation Speed and Maintainability
Safedep.io completed a migration of approximately 3,000 pages from Astro to Next.js 16 across their marketing site, blog, and threat intelligence hub. The migration was guided by strict rendering and code rules, rigorously enforced through linting and CI, ensuring only correct and maintainable code was shipped. The move resulted in navigations between pages being up to 2.4 times faster on slow connections, decreased third-party scripts from multiple requests to a single 217-byte pixel, and improved accessibility scores to 100. While Next.js increased JavaScript bundle size and memory usage during builds, it provided key benefits like server-side rendering, instant navigations without full single-page app overhead, feature flags, and incremental static regeneration. The migration took five days to reach parity, with manual refinement afterward, and introduced the use of Bun as the development server to handle larger posts by mitigating memory leaks seen with Node.js. This transition highlights the importance of defining strict coding standards and build-time checks to maintain code quality and performance in complex web projects.
