Navigating Between Pages

The talk teaches page navigation in Next.js, starting with the Link component and its client-side transitions and prefetching. It explains dynamic routes with bracketed path segments and how to read route parameters with useRouter. It then shows how getInitialProps can fetch data from JSONPlaceholder and pass it into a page. Finally, it demonstrates using router.push to redirect after a mock login and fetching GitHub profile data for a dashboard.
