Next.js · Junior · Question 31 of 75
Which bundler does Next.js 16 use by default for next dev and next build?
- ✓Correct answer: Turbopack, without extra flags
- 2Webpack, as in previous versions
- 3Vite, after switching from Webpack
Explanation
Since Next.js 16, Turbopack is stable and used by default in both modes - the --turbopack flag is no longer needed. You can go back to Webpack with the --webpack flag. If the project has a custom webpack config, next build without the flag fails so that the config isn't silently ignored.
