I like the way this works, it feels inspired by SvelteKit's __layout.svelte files and I think it's just very intuitive to work with.

Edit: welp, seems i glanced over too quickly, it's literally written there:

> The layout.js file convention was inspired by the work done in SvelteKit

why do I remember that nextjs always has had layout. Only worked with it briefly 2 years ago.

It’s always (or at least for a long time) had a layout, where you can define components that your page fits into. It’s really nice for putting a login status in a navbar, or something like toast notifications, because the layout components don’t get replaced when you navigate client-side.

But it’s not nested currently, you only get one layout - so if you want some pages to have a sidebar or something then you’re not getting the benefit of the layout system for that.
