How do I use advanced linking in Next.js?

In Next.js, you can use the Link component for client-side navigation. For advanced linking, you can customize the behavior by using the prefetch, replace, and scroll props.

Can you explain the prefetch prop?

Sure! The prefetch prop allows you to pre-load the linked page in the background, improving navigation speed. It's enabled by default for links that are visible in the viewport.

What about the replace prop?

The replace prop, when set to true, replaces the current entry in the browser's history stack instead of adding a new one. This is useful for navigation that shouldn't create a new history entry.

How can I handle dynamic routes with links?

For dynamic routes, you can use template literals to construct the href prop. For example, <Link href={/post/${postId}}>Post</Link>.
