NextJS + Typescript Starter Template (opinionated)

Every time I create a NextJS project, I find that some time is spent in migrating to TypeScript and installing common packages that I use most of the time. This is an opinionated NextJS starter template that I made for my ease of use so that I can start the development process quicker.

The starter template includes, out of the box:

• Typescript support
• Common packages (axios, formik, yup)
• Material UI (@material-ui/core and @material-ui/lab)
• FontAwesome Icons
• Opinionated Layout, Header and Footer components

Getting Started

• Clone the repo
• Run yarn or npm install to install the packages
• Modify the "dev": "next dev -p 1337", command in package.json. The default port is specified to be 1337.
• Run yarn dev or npm run dev
• The development server should be accessible at http://localhost:1337 if you didn't change anything, or http://localhost:${PORT} if you changed the PORT to something else.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
