What exactly isnt working?
Do you Sections with the correct id?

Yes
On localhost:3000 it works fine
But when I host it on netlify
It doesn’t work
When you click any of those Nav links
It does nothing

Update to the latest next version (npm update) and test it out on npm run build && npm start
On netlify you should also try and see if the IDs are being changed for some reason or the links are being messed with using the browser dev tools

I’m using NextJS 13

If nothing works change to a normal <a>

I disabled ESLint

NextJS 13 also has minor and patch versions
Try this tbh
Maybe Link requires you to pass in the full path starting from root. Who knows. A simple <a> tag should fix your problem and Link isnt very useful in this case anyways imo
