Next.JS Starter

This is a starter template that I have created to serve as an initial starting point for my side projects that use Next.JS.

It includes Next.JS, Prisma, a GraphQL server, Tailwind CSS styling and it's all typed, of course.

Get Started

To get started, you first need to copy .env.example to .env.

In your new .env file, you need to edit the environment variables to match your application, in particular, you need to enter a DATABASE_URL according to your database, this should be a connection string.

Once that's done, you should run yarn install to retrieve and install the required dependencies.

If it's your first time connecting to the database, you should also run the command yarn migrate-dev to initially setup your database.

Working with the code

Once you've installed and setup everything, you can run the command yarn dev to start a local instance of the application.

It should be available at http://localhost:3000.

Building the code

To build the code, run the command yarn build. For production, you should also run yarn gql-gen to generate the urql hooks for the graphQL queries with GraphQL Code Generator

Prisma

To generate the prisma client, you can also run yarn prisma-client.

Applying migrations

For development, run the following command:

yarn migrate-dev

For production, run the following command:

yarn migrate-deploy
