## Summary

Next.js 15 Release Candidate introduces major updates aimed at enhancing web application development. Key features include full support for React 19 RC, revamped caching strategies with configurable invalidation periods, and experimental Partial Prerendering for hybrid rendering approaches. Additionally, the release introduces a new next/after API for handling secondary tasks post-response and updates to the create-next-app tool, including support for Turbopack.
