Consider using path-to-regexp's compile function

Like in this branch: https://github.com/gvergnaud/nextjs-dynamic-routes/tree/use-pathtoregexp

This way advanced URL patterns such as :foo+ and :digits(\d+) can be supported.

Yep as you can see I was planing on migrating to path-to-regexp, but I didn't manage to make it work on my first try for some reason. I agree it would be nice to finish this. I'll have a look.
Of course, you are welcome to open a PR for this :)

One thing that stopped me from making a PR is that the functions returned by compile throw errors when given invalid/missing data, while today’s implementation seems to never throw errors. So we need to decide what the API should look like (does it throw errors?) and if it’s a breaking change etc.
