The NextJS starter project will help developers quickly stand-up a website using NextJS and supporting technologies. The following documentation will guide you through the setup of NextJS and other technologies such as:

• Base

  • NextJS
  • TypeScript

• UI

  • Fluent UI React v9

• Data

  • Mobx
  • useSwr

• Code Quality

  • ESLint
  • Prettier
  • Husky
  • Jest

• Deployment

  • server.js (assuming a deployment to Linux-based Azure Web App)

• Theming with Fluent UI React

• Paging system in NextJS

• Fetching data from a local API using SWR

• Storing data in memory using mobx

1. VS Code https://code.visualstudio.com/Download
2. Node https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Open package.json to see the following script:

"scripts": {
        "dev": "next dev",
        "build": "next build",
        "start": "npm run build && node server.js",
        "lint": "eslint . --ext ts --ext tsx --ext js",
        "prepare": "husky install",
        "format": "prettier --write .",
        "type-check": "tsc --pretty --noEmit"
    }

These scripts refer to the different stages of developing an application:

• dev - Runs next dev which starts Next.js in development mode
• build - Runs next build which builds the application for production usage
• start - Runs build and then for starts production server
• lint - Runs lint which sets up Next.js' with custom built ESLint configuration
• prepare - Runs the prepare lifecycle before running the package to install the husky
• format - Runs command to formats all file supported by Prettier in the current directory and its subdirectories.

Next.js is built around the concept of pages. A page is a React Component exported from the .ts, or .tsx file in the pages directory.

Under the src folder you will find the pages. These pages are associated with a route based on their file name. For example pages/todo.tsx is mapped to /todo.

You will find the configuration file .eslintrc.json in the directory .

"parser": "@typescript-eslint/parser",
    "plugins": ["@typescript-eslint"],
    "extends": [
        "eslint:recommended",
        "plugin:react/recommended",
        "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended",
        "prettier"
    ],
    "env": {
        "es6": true,
        "browser": true,
        "jest": true,
        "node": true
    },
    
    "rules": {
}

Here are some of the options that you can configure in ESLint:

• Environments - which environments your script is designed to run in. Here we see the env parameter that supports the required environments.
• Rules - Rules set the parameters that are followed by the company and at the required error level.
• Plugins - which third-party plugins define additional rules. environments etc. for ESLint to use.
