Solving Real-World Data Fetching Challenges with Next.js and TanStack Query

In this pragmatic case study, Fariz Aziz walks through a fintech team’s struggle with bloated APIs, choppy caching, and resilience gaps when building React UIs. He shows how adopting a Backend-for-Frontend pattern in Next.js slims down payloads, strengthens server-side rendering and API routing, and sets the stage for smarter caching.

Then he layers in TanStack Query to keep server and client state in sync, minimize re-renders, and turbocharge performance. Packed with real-world demos, you’ll leave with concrete techniques for crafting resilient, scalable front-ends—even when your backend isn’t playing along.
