How Vercel Made Web Performance a Feature

from Tech Startups with Fexingo: Founders, Funding, and Software Companies Explained · host Fexingo

Episode 16 of Tech Startups with Fexingo. Lucas and Luna explore how Vercel turned web performance from a backend concern into a developer-first feature. They break down the company's bet on edge rendering, how it changed deployment workflows, and why its open-source framework Next.js became the default for over a million sites. Specific numbers: 4.5 million monthly active developers on Next.js, 1.2 trillion requests served per month via Vercel's edge network. Plus, how Vercel's approach to developer experience mirrors what Stripe and Figma did in their domains. No fluff, just the specific mechanics of a company that made speed a product differentiator. #Vercel #NextJS #WebPerformance #EdgeComputing #DeveloperExperience #Jamstack #OpenSource #Frontend #DX #StartupStrategy #CloudComputing #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechStartups #Founders #SoftwareEngineering Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
