Problem

The header navigation components were causing SSR hydration errors during production builds.
Errors observed:

  • document is not defined
  • Hydration mismatch between server and client
  • Build failures on pages using header navigation

This happened because browser-only logic (DOM access, hover interactions, animations) was executed during server-side rendering.

Solution

  • Converted header navigation components (Product, Solutions, Docs, Resources) to client-only rendering using next/dynamic with ssr: false
  • Ensured browser-specific logic runs only on the client
  • Prevented server from attempting to render DOM-dependent components

Result

  • npm run build no longer crashes due to hydration issues
  • Header navigation works correctly in the browser
  • Production-safe SSR behavior restored

Verification

  • Local build passes after fix
  • No hydration warnings in browser console
  • Navigation dropdowns function as expected
