Next.js and in-app guidance
Next.js mixes server-rendered pages, client components, and the App Router’s streaming model. That means any in-app guidance script has two questions to answer: where to load it without blocking the initial paint, and how to handle navigation between routes that may be partially server-rendered.
The App Router does soft client-side navigation between segments. A tour that fires on initial mount needs to re-evaluate on route segments too, otherwise users miss steps when they move from /pricing to /dashboard.
Installing Produktly on Next.js
Use the next/script component in your root layout so the snippet loads once and survives client-side navigation.
// app/layout.tsx
import Script from 'next/script';
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
return (
<html>
<body>
{children}
<Script id="produktly" strategy="afterInteractive">
{`
(function (w, d, f) {
var a = d.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
var s = d.createElement("script");
s.async = 1; s.src = f;
s.setAttribute("id", "produktlyScript");
s.dataset.clientToken = "YOUR_TOKEN";
a.appendChild(s);
})(window, document, "https://public.produktly.com/js/main.js");
`}
</Script>
</body>
</html>
);
}For the older pages directory, drop the same IIFE into pages/_document.js via next/script. Strategy "afterInteractive" keeps it off the critical path.
Things to watch out for on Next.js
Script loads in the wrong segment
If you mount the snippet in a route-specific layout, it unloads when the user navigates away. Put it in the root layout so it persists for the whole session.
App Router navigation skips full reloads
next/link does soft navigation between routes. Configure Produktly’s SPA redirect mode so tours that span multiple pages still chain steps together.
Hydration mismatch warnings if you inject early
Loading the snippet inline before hydration can mutate the DOM and trigger React warnings. Use next/script with afterInteractive strategy to defer until after hydration finishes.
Why teams on Next.js pick Produktly
Next.js teams pick Produktly because the script is a single line in root layout, no SDK to keep in sync with framework upgrades. SPA redirect mode handles App Router and Pages Router navigation, and the editor stays out of the way of Server Components since it operates at the browser DOM level.
