Vercel Web Analytics Installation Report

Summary

Successfully installed and configured Vercel Web Analytics for this Next.js project following the latest official documentation from https://vercel.com/docs/analytics/quickstart.

Changes Made

1. Package Installation

  • File: frontend/package.json
  • Action: Added @vercel/analytics version ^2.0.1 as a dependency
  • Command: npm install @vercel/analytics
  • Lockfile: Updated package-lock.json to reflect new dependency

2. Analytics Integration

  • File: frontend/app/layout.tsx
  • Changes:
    • Added import: import {Analytics} from '@vercel/analytics/next'
    • Added <Analytics /> component inside the <ThemeProvider> component, placed right after the existing <SpeedInsights /> component

This follows the official Vercel documentation for Next.js App Router projects, which recommends adding the Analytics component to the root layout file.

Implementation Details

The project uses:

  • Framework: Next.js 16.2.1 with App Router
  • Package Manager: npm
  • Layout Structure: Server-side root layout in app/layout.tsx

The Analytics component was strategically placed:

  1. Inside the <ThemeProvider> wrapper to ensure proper theme context
  2. After the <SpeedInsights /> component to maintain consistency with existing Vercel integrations
  3. At the end of the body element as recommended by Vercel documentation

Verification

✅ Code passes ESLint with no new errors introduced
✅ Analytics package successfully installed
✅ Import statement correctly added
✅ Component properly integrated into layout
✅ Lock files updated

Note: Build verification requires environment variables to be configured (specifically NEXT_PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET), which is unrelated to this Analytics implementation.

Next Steps

To enable Analytics tracking on Vercel:

  1. Deploy the application to Vercel
  2. Navigate to the project's Analytics section in the Vercel dashboard
  3. Click the "Enable" button to activate Web Analytics
  4. Verify tracking by checking browser Network tab for /<unique-path>/view requests after deployment

Files Modified

  • frontend/app/layout.tsx - Added Analytics import and component
  • frontend/package.json - Added @vercel/analytics dependency
  • package-lock.json - Updated with new dependency resolution
