Vercel Web Analytics Configuration

Summary

Fixed the Vercel Web Analytics configuration for Next.js App Router by correcting the import path.

Changes Made

Modified Files:

  • src/app/layout.tsx: Updated the Analytics import from '@vercel/analytics/react' to '@vercel/analytics/next'

Details

The project already had @vercel/analytics package installed (v1.6.1) and the <Analytics /> component was already added to the root layout. However, the import was using the incorrect path for Next.js.

What Was Fixed:

  • Changed: import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/react';
  • To: import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/next';

Why This Change:

According to Vercel's official documentation, Next.js projects (both App Router and Pages Router) should use '@vercel/analytics/next' for optimal integration. The '@vercel/analytics/react' import is intended for other React frameworks like Remix or standalone React applications.

Verification

✓ Dependencies installed successfully
✓ Build completed successfully with Next.js 16.1.4 (Turbopack)
✓ TypeScript compilation passed
✓ All 82 pages generated successfully
✓ No build errors introduced

Implementation Notes

The Analytics component is properly placed in the root layout at src/app/layout.tsx, inside the <body> tag after the Footer and Toaster components. This follows Next.js App Router best practices and ensures analytics tracking is enabled across all pages of the application.

The configuration is now correct and aligned with Vercel's official recommendations for Next.js projects.
