vinext is an experimental Vite plugin by Cloudflare that reimplements the Next.js API surface (~94% coverage) on top of Vite, enabling Next.js applications to run on Cloudflare Workers without the Next.js compiler toolchain. Built almost entirely by AI (Claude Code) in one week, it supports both App Router and Pages Router, React Server Components via @vitejs/plugin-rsc, ISR with pluggable cache handlers, middleware, server actions, and a full CLI including one-command migration (vinext init). Deployment targets Cloudflare Workers with zero cold starts, and an experimental Traffic-aware Pre-Rendering (TPR) feature pre-renders only high-traffic pages. The project includes 1,700+ Vitest tests and 380 Playwright E2E tests. It is explicitly experimental and not production-ready, with OpenNext recommended as the battle-tested alternative.
