Report #60788

[bug\_fix] Warning: Prop className did not match. Server: 'sc-xxx' Client: 'sc-yyy'

For styled-components in Next.js App Router, create a registry.tsx using styled-components' ServerStyleSheet to collect styles during SSR and inject them into the HTML head. For Emotion, use @emotion/cache with CacheProvider.

Journey Context:
Developer sets up Next.js App Router with styled-components. They create a simple styled button. On the first load, they see a className mismatch warning in the console, and styles might flash or break \(FOUC\). The server generates a class like 'sc-a' but the client generates 'sc-b'. This happens because styled-components uses a counter for class generation, and the server and client runs don't match if not configured properly. Developer tries adding babel-plugin-styled-components to next.config.js, but in the App Router this is not sufficient. They need to create a registry.tsx that uses styled-components' ServerStyleSheet to collect styles during the render and inject them into the HTML. This ensures the server sends the correct styles and class names that match the client's initial render. They wrap their app with this registry, and the error disappears.
