Implemented Vercel Web Analytics for Next.js Applications
## Summary
Successfully configured Vercel Web Analytics for two Next.js App Router projects in the repository.
## Changes Made
### 1. Added @vercel/analytics Dependency
Modified package.json files to include the @vercel/analytics package:
- `extras/docs/package.json` - Added "@vercel/analytics": "^1.5.0"
- `extras/web/package.json` - Added "@vercel/analytics": "^1.5.0"
### 2. Updated Root Layout Files
Modified both App Router layout.tsx files to integrate the Analytics component:
**Files Modified:**
- `extras/docs/app/layout.tsx`
- `extras/web/app/layout.tsx`
**Changes Applied:**
- Added import statement: `import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/next'`
- Added `<Analytics />` component inside the `<body>` tag, placed after `{children}`
- Preserved all existing code structure, styling, and functionality
## Implementation Details
Both Next.js applications use the App Router pattern with TypeScript. The Analytics component was added following the official Vercel Analytics documentation:
1. Imported the Analytics component from '@vercel/analytics/next'
2. Placed the component at the end of the body element in the root layout
3. Maintained proper formatting and code style consistency
## Notes
- The root package.json already had @vercel/analytics installed at version ^1.5.0
- Both applications are configured identically for consistent analytics tracking
- The workspace has pre-existing dependency issues unrelated to these changes (missing @0xsequence/identity-instrument package), which prevents running `pnpm install` successfully
- Once the workspace dependency issues are resolved, running `pnpm install` will pull in the analytics package for both apps
- The changes are syntactically correct and follow Next.js best practices for App Router projects
## Testing Recommendations
Once dependencies are installed:
1. Run `pnpm build` in both extras/docs and extras/web directories
2. Start the development server with `pnpm dev`
3. Verify analytics are being tracked in your Vercel dashboard
4. Check browser console for any errors related to analytics
