Fixing Client-Server Waterfalls After Migrating from Vite to Next.js

Short summary

After migrating from Vite to Next.js, client-server waterfalls persist if data fetching patterns aren't refactored. Move fetching from useEffect to async Server Components, use Promise.all for parallel requests, and leverage Suspense and React's cache to eliminate redundant roundtrips. This shift from component-driven to route-driven fetching optimizes performance for server-rendered applications.

• •Move data fetching from Client Components (useEffect) to async Server Components for lower latency
• •Use Promise.all to parallelize independent data requests instead of sequential awaits
• •Implement Suspense boundaries and React's cache function to prevent duplicate fetches and keep UI responsive
