React VS NextJS for Django

I am still quite new to React, and I am currently working on a Django-React app. I read a bit about Next JS and it seems quite useful and interesting (especially for SEO), but I've heard various opinons about it. I am considering using it for the front end and rendering only.

Therefore I was wondering, would it be worth it to learn and implement NextJS (and re do some of the work I did with react), or is the effort to great for a minimal result? Will NextJS allow me to do more than react (in terms of SEO and rendering)? Does the complexity of a project really increases when implementing Nextjs + React-Django?

Lots of people are talking about NextJs and I was wondering if it was just "another framework" or really something more.

Have a good day

Nextjs is better for SEO as it renders server side and all the data can be indexed by search engines. IMO Nextjs is better because you are strictly using Javascript and it integrates very well with react. If you have good design patterns/reusable react components it will be very easy to integrate with Nextjs. The built in API feature is also very seemless. If you use Nextjs there is no need for Django.
