Nookies is a lightweight set of cookie helpers for Next.js that supports parsing, setting, and destroying cookies on both the client and server side, including SSR contexts and custom Express servers. It is commonly used for authentication flows in Next.js applications.

Use cases

• parse cookies in getServerSideProps
• set cookies during server-side rendering in Next.js
• destroy cookies on logout in a Next.js app
• manage auth cookies with a custom Express server
• read and write cookies from the browser in React
• handle httpOnly session cookies in Next.js

When to choose

• you are building a Next.js app and need SSR-aware cookie handling
• you need the same cookie API on both client and server
• you use a custom Express server with Next.js and need cookie helpers
• you want a tiny dependency for auth cookie management

When to avoid

• you are not using Next.js or Express
• you need advanced cookie features like signing or encryption
• you prefer a framework-agnostic cookie library with broader ecosystem support
