I was making a page using the leaflet and next.js

I got this error for just importing the leaflet.

I was very confused why this was not getting built. Also even though it ran on the dev mode but still gave me error.

I was not expecting any error as I already used the "use client" on the page.
Hoping the page would be cool and treated as just client side code.

Sorted by: Reset to default 0

So I found the answer, with a lot of trial and error and having used the
React.lazy() . It hit me and I just did some wrestling with the bug
and Sheesh folks Here is the solution.

TLDR; Just rename the page.tsx to Leaflet.tsx , nice 89% done let's do 11%

make the new page.tsx in the same dir

"use client";

import dynamic from 'next/dynamic';
const LeafletMap = dynamic(() => import('./Leaflet'), { ssr: false });

export default function Page() {
  return <LeafletMap />;
}

POV: Used ai to smooth my ans.

The dynamic import works for several key reasons:

Why Dynamic Import Works

1. Client-Side Rendering

• ssr: false explicitly disables server-side rendering
• Ensures Leaflet map is only rendered on the client-side
• Prevents server-side rendering errors with browser-specific APIs like navigator.geolocation

2. Lazy Loading

• Components are loaded only when needed
• Reduces initial bundle size
• Improves application performance

3. Next.js Dynamic Import Mechanism

• next/dynamic uses React's lazy loading under the hood
• Automatically handles code splitting
• Provides fallback support during component loading

Technical Details

• import('./Leaflet') dynamically imports the Leaflet component
• { ssr: false } tells Next.js to skip server-side rendering
• Component will only load in the browser
• Prevents "window is not defined" errors

Best Practice: Use dynamic imports for components with browser-specific APIs or heavy client-side interactions.
