Blank page after router.push() in Next.js?

How to solve the blank page after you programmatically call router.push() in Next.js?

When working in Next.js, do you see a blank page after you programmatically call router.push()?

I had this problem too, and here’s how I solved it.

Don’t write return after calling router.push(), and don’t use it as a return value.

Never use return when you use it.

For example, don’t do this:

router.push('/')
return

And don’t do this:

return router.push('/')

Do this:

router.push('/')
