Repository files navigation

This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app, using the Typescript Template.

It has been modified to include MDX and automatic parsing of content files to run a blog engine, unit testing via Jest, and end-to-end testing via Playwright.

Getting Started

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Inter, a custom Google Font.

Adding Blog Content

Modify or add markdown files in the src/assets/articles directory, and refresh to see the results in app! The file name and path relative to articles/ will be the post slug in the hostname/articles/slug path. Supports nested subdirectories, for example for writing articles by year.

At the top of each file is a YAML based frontmatter section that requires these fields:

title: The article title that will display in the list of articles and at the top of the article page.

date: Publishing date of the article. Enclose in quotes to prevent automatic parsing into a date object.

description: Article description or summary that appears in the list of articles.

thumbnailUrl: Address relative to the public/images/ directory of the thumbnail image.

tags: Array of strings for article tags, automatically counted and displayed on the hostname/tags page.

Running Tests

Run Jest unit tests via the npm run test (for a single run) or npm run test:watch (for continuous file watch run) commands.

Playwright tests need the server running locally in either dev or production mode, then in a separate terminal window, run npm run test:e2e for headless mode with reporting in console, or npm run test:e2e:ui to run the Playwright ui.

Deploy on Vercel

The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the Vercel Platform from the creators of Next.js.

Check out our Next.js deployment documentation for more details.

Dependabot

This template repository is configured to use dependabot by default, to facilitate maintaining an up-to-date template for users. If you would like to disable this, be sure to remove the dependabot configuration file from .github/dependabot.yml.
