In this video, you'll learn everything about the redirect() function from next/navigation in the Next.js App Router. We’ll cover when and how to use it inside Server Actions, what common errors you might face, and how to fix them effectively—especially when using try-catch blocks.

⚠️ Stop misusing client-side redirection like router.push()—use the powerful server-side redirect() instead for secure, fast, and cleaner navigation.
Whether you're working with form submissions, page loaders, or server logic — this is a must-know feature for all Next.js 14+ developers.
BONUS: Learn why redirect() must not be used inside try-catch, and what’s the correct approach.
