yes, nextjs is based on the react framework. Keep in mind: react can only build frontend and single page apps. Nextjs itself is a fullstack framework for web apps

@Spectacled bear Do i use react? with nextjs features?
you are using nextjs. Both are frameworks and you can only use one at a time.

However: both, react and nextjs, share for example the syntax: JSX (or TSX)
