192 Best Next.js Website Examples

By John Siciliano Has affiliate links Published 5/27/2025 Updated 8/16/2026

Every site here is trying to prove credibility to a stranger in about three seconds. The best Next.js websites skip photography almost entirely. They lean on dark backgrounds and interface-led heroes instead, a pattern that held when I ran every site on this page through Claude. That trade-off buys speed and focus, but it means the design has to earn trust through layout and copy alone. Compare the Next.js SaaS sites and developer portfolios below to see how each side handles it.

Best Next.js website examples skip the photo hero

Photography leads hero media on only 36.8% of Next.js sites, against 64.1% across the whole gallery, a gap wide enough to call this platform’s defining trait. Where photo-led design dominates elsewhere, Next.js builds favor product mockups (22.6%) and illustration (20%) instead, treating the hero as a demonstration surface rather than a mood board. Cal and ScrubSync put a product screenshot front and center, while CrowdSec leans on illustration to explain a technical product without a single photograph. This matters for anyone building in the Next.js SaaS Websites category: the platform’s technical audience expects to see the interface, not a lifestyle shot.

Near-black backgrounds are nearly a third of the gallery

Near-black backgrounds appear on 30.4% of Next.js sites, compared with 18.1% gallery-wide, making this the platform’s second clearest signature. That is still well behind near-white, which holds 57.1%, but the near-black share is large enough that dark-mode-first design reads as a deliberate convention rather than a fringe choice. Vercel, Raycast, and Next.js itself all run near-black backgrounds paired with black-and-white palettes, and Aashni Shah shows the same approach carrying through to a photography-led portfolio. Anyone shipping a developer tool on this platform should treat near-black as a live, credible option rather than a departure from the norm.

Full-bleed overlay heroes are underused here

Only 21.4% of Next.js sites use a full-bleed overlay hero, against 35.7% across the gallery, continuing the pattern set by the photo numbers: overlay heroes need a strong photographic background, and Next.js sites are not building around photography. Split-copy-left (27.6%) and stacked-copy-top (23.4%) arrangements lead instead, arrangements suited to placing a mockup or illustration beside or beneath a headline. Arc for Students and Buffer both structure their heroes around a product screenshot rather than an image bleeding to the edges of the viewport.

Buttons stay rounded, rarely square

Rounded corners take 53.1% of CTA shapes, pill shapes take 34.4%, and square sits at just 12.5%, with a median corner radius of 9px. This is a low-commitment default: rounded buttons read as safe and modern without demanding a design decision. Huly and CrowdSec both use rounded buttons against muted palettes, a combination common enough among developer-tool sites and portfolio builds alike, including many featured in the Next.js Web Developer Portfolio Websites collection.
