An open source application built using the new router, server components and everything new in Next.js 13.
Warning This app is a work in progress. I'm building this in public. You can follow the progress on Twitter @shadcn. See the roadmap below.
This project as an experiment to see how a modern app (with features like authentication, subscriptions, API routes, static pages for docs ...etc) would work in Next.js 13 and server components.
This is not a starter template.
A few people have asked me to turn this into a starter. I think we could do that once the new features are out of beta.
Warning This app is using the unstable releases for Next.js 13 and React 18. The new router and app dir is still in beta and not production-ready. Expect some performance hits when testing the dashboard. If you see something broken, you can ping me @shadcn.

A list of things not working right now:
GitHub authentication (use email)Prisma: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/var/task/.next/server/chunks/schema.prisma'Next.js 13: Client side navigation does not update head- Cannot use opengraph-image.tsx inside catch-all routes
I might add this later. For now, I want to see how far we can get using Next.js only.
If you have some suggestions, feel free to create an issue.
- Install dependencies using pnpm:
pnpm install
-
Copy
.env.example
to.env
and update the variables.cp .env.example .env
NEXTAUTH_SECRET
: generate withopenssl rand -base64 32
DATABASE_URL
:-
Create a new database called
taxonomy
on PlanetScale -
In PlanetScale, go to Branches and create a new branch called
dev
-
Click the
dev
branch, then click the Connect button -
Change the Connect with dropdown to Prisma, copy the
DATABASE_URL
string and add it to.env
(replacing any existing `DATABASE_URL environment variable already in there) -
(Optional) Back on PlanetScale > Branches, click the
main
branch and click Promote to production branch -
From the project command line, run the following to push the database schema to the PlanetScale
dev
branch:npx prisma db push
-
Going forward, after making changes to the schema in
prisma.schema
, runnpx prisma db push
which will (1) runprisma generate
to re-sync the Prisma Client and (2) push the changes to thedev
branch on PlanetScale (see this article for explanation)
