Vercel now supports and automatically optimizes your Hydrogen 2 projects as of Vercel CLI v31.2.3
. When importing a new project, it will detect Hydrogen and configure the right settings for optimal performance — including using Vercel Edge Functions for server-rendering pages.
Deploy the Hydrogen template or run vercel init hydrogen-2
command in your terminal to get started.
