In this Next.js 15 tutorial, we explore how to navigate between pages using the Link component from next/link. You’ll learn the difference between using regular HTML a tags (which reload the entire page) and Next.js Link (which enables fast, client-side navigation).
We’ll also create a reusable NavBar component, add it inside the layout.tsx file so it shows up across all routes, and test smooth navigation between Home, About, and Dashboard pages.
By the end of this video, you’ll know the correct way to link pages in Next.js and why next/link is essential for building modern, seamless applications.
