Nigerian Terrain Case Study

High-Latency Resilient Frontend Architecture: Next.js 15 & TanStack Query

In Nigeria, mobile internet (MTN, Airtel, Glo) suffers from packet loss, high RTT (>120ms to foreign regions), and sudden connection drops. Frontends must implement optimistic updates, offline caching, and aggressive compression rather than assuming constant gigabit fiber.

Key Topics & Theoretical Concepts
