Next.js 12.1 is now available

We're excited to release one of our most requested features with Next.js 12.1:

• On-demand ISR (Beta): Revalidate pages using getStaticProps instantly.

• Expanded Support for SWC: styled-components, Relay, and more.

• next/jest Plugin: Zero-configuration Jest support using SWC.

• Faster Minification with SWC (RC): 7x faster minification than Terser.

• Self-Hosting Improvements: ~80% smaller Docker images.

• React 18 & Server Components (Alpha): Improved stability and support.

• Developer Survey: Help us improve Next.js with your feedback.

Starting today when deployed to Vercel, on-demand revalidation propagates globally in ~300ms when pushing pages to the edge. Read the 12.1 blog post to learn more.
