Learn how to add Background Job Processing to a Next.js site using QStash.
QStash offers background job processing as a service over an HTTP API.
It's a simple way to add resiliency and off load side effect work to a background process, without affecting your users journey throughout your application.
You can queue background jobs with a simple HTTP call, then QStash will "call back" to your defined URL with the payload you queued.
