Overview of Sajaboys Wallpapers

Building Sajaboys Wallpapers: A Modern Media Platform with Next.js

The Stack That Powers HD Wallpaper Delivery

Sajaboys Wallpapers delivers high-quality static and live wallpapers through a carefully crafted tech stack:

Core Architecture

┌─────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐
│ Next.js 15 │◄─────►│ Vercel Edge │◄─────►│ Cloudflare │
│ (App Router) │ │ Functions │ │ CDN/R2 │
└─────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
▲ ▲ ▲
│ │ │
┌─────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐
│ React 18 │ │ Static JSON │ │ Image/Video │
│ (Server/Client │ │ Data Store │ │ Assets │
│ Components) │ └──────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
└─────────────────┘

Frontend

  • Next.js 15 with App Router architecture
  • React Server Components for optimized data fetching
  • Dynamic Routes for wallpaper detail pages:
    • /live/[slug] - Dynamic live wallpapers
    • /static/[slug] - High-res static wallpapers
  • Next Image for optimized responsive images
  • Tailwind CSS with custom theming

Backend & Hosting

  • Vercel Edge Functions for dynamic routing
  • Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) for wallpaper pages
  • Server-Side Generation (SSG) for core pages
  • Route Handlers for API endpoints

Media Handling


jsx
// Example video player component
"use client";
import React, { useState } from 'react';

export default function VideoPlayer({ src, poster }) {
  const [isPlaying, setIsPlaying] = useState(false);

  return (
    <div className="relative aspect-[9/16]">
      {!isPlaying ? (
        <div onClick={() => setIsPlaying(true)}>
          <Image src={poster} fill className="object-cover" />
        </div>
      ) : (
        <video autoPlay loop muted playsInline>
          <source src={src} type="video/mp4" />
        </video>
      )}
    </div>
  );
}
Data Management
​JSON Data Files​ for wallpaper metadata
​Dynamic Import​ for code-splitting
​Cached Data Fetching​ with fetch() API
Performance Optimizations
​Lazy Loading​ for below-the-fold content
​Skeleton Loading​ states
​Optimized CLS​ (Cumulative Layout Shift)
​AVIF/WebP​ image formats support
​Video Poster Previews​ for live wallpapers
SEO Implementation
​Dynamic Sitemap Generation​
jsx
// app/sitemap.js
export default async function sitemap() {
  const wallpapers = await getWallpaperSlugs();

  return [
    { url: 'https://sajaboys.live', lastModified: new Date() },
    ...wallpapers.map(wp => ({
      url: `https://sajaboys.live/${wp.type}/${wp.slug}`,
      lastModified: wp.updatedAt,
    }))
  ];
}
​Structured Data​ for rich results
​Dynamic OG Image Generation​
Key Architectural Decisions

1. Hybrid Rendering Approach
Combined SSG for static content with ISR for frequently updated wallpaper listings

2. Smart Media Delivery
jsx
<Image
  src={wallpaper.image}
  alt={wallpaper.title}
  width={1080}
  height={1920}
  priority={isAboveFold}
  placeholder="blur"
  blurDataURL={base64Placeholder}
/>
3. Client-Side Interactivity
Download manager with native <a download> behavior
Smooth transitions between wallpaper types
4. Error Handling
jsx
export default function WallpaperPage({ params }) {
  const wallpaper = await getWallpaper(params.slug);

  if (!wallpaper) notFound();

  // Render component...
}
