How to Deploy Next.js to Flux Cloud: Decentralized, High-Uptime, and Budget-Friendly

If you are a Next.js developer, you are probably used to the "Vercel way" of doing things. It is great, but as projects grow, the costs can scale quickly, and you are tied into a single provider's ecosystem. Flux Cloud recently released their new Deploy with Git feature. It is a decentralized alternative that offers a "push to deploy" experience but runs your app across a global network of independent nodes. Here is why it is a solid choice for Next.js projects and how to get set up. Why Next.js on Flux Cloud?

Built-in Failover: If a deployment fails, Flux automatically rolls back to the last working version. Full
