Hello I have a question. Let's say I want to build a Task manager or Dashboard or any other application that's doesn't need seo but has heavy interactivity.
I will only use server to fetch data or auth related stuff but use client component everywhere else. Isn't this strategy is going to offload some task from server and stop requesting server for every page load or change of UI? In the process my money will be saved!
Also is it bad to make the root layout and pages of this kind application client component?

Next.js is still good for dasbhoards, it has lot of features that are useful for dashboards. ex: route groups, parallel routing, and most importantly SSR
Also, instead of making root layout client component, create a layout wrapper which is a client component and wrap the main component in it

Thanks @averydelusionalperson for sharing your opinion 🙂
I am a bit curious. What problem will it cause if I make the root layout "use client" ?
