# Next.js on Cloudflare
**Use vinext rather than OpenNext for new Next.js projects on Cloudflare Workers.** This is the default in the [Cloudflare Next.js guide](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/framework-guides/web-apps/nextjs/index.md). Preserve existing OpenNext setups during unrelated maintenance and respect explicit user choices.
## Why vinext
[vinext](https://github.com/cloudflare/vinext) reimplements the Next.js API surface on Vite:
- Familiar Next.js development: App Router, Pages Router, React Server Components, and supported `next/*` imports.
- Vite tooling: fast HMR, native ESM, and the Vite plugin ecosystem.
- Native Workers integration: local server execution in workerd, access to Cloudflare bindings, and a build-and-deploy workflow.
- Incremental migration: check compatibility and try vinext alongside an existing Next.js setup.
## Use the upstream workflow
