#next.js

Join us for a hands-on workshop where we'll show you how to level up your React skills to build a high-performance headless website using Next.js, Sanity, and the JAMstack architecture. No prior knowledge of Next.js or Sanity is required, making this workshop ideal for anyone familiar with React who wants to learn more about building dynamic, responsive websites.
In this workshop, we'll explore how Next.js, a React-based framework, can be used to build a static website with server-side rendering and dynamic routing. You'll learn how to use Sanity as a headless CMS to manage your website’s content, create custom page templates with Next.js, use APIs to integrate with the CMS, and deploy your website to production with Vercel.
By the end of this workshop, you will have a solid understanding of how Next.js and Sanity.io can be used together to create a high-performance, scalable, and flexible website.

You might have read already about Jamstack. You probably already used Next.js, and recently you may be hearing a lot about the headless CMSs. This quick course will put all the pieces together and show you why Storyblok, combined with Next.js, is the best combo for your next project. Stop by and try it yourself!
- In-depth Jamstack knowledge. How it changed from old times to the modern world. Learn how Jamstack was created by comparing Static Sites and Dynamic Sites.- How Next.js serves content, and how content is served with Static Site Generation (SSG).- Atomic design methodology, and how this is applied to the content management system.- Hands-on project experience by building a Jamstack project with Next.js and Storyblok.
Prerequisites- Any Text . Visual Studio Code recommended- Node.js LTS- NPM or Yarn- GitHub account- Vercel account- Familiarity with JavaScript, React, and Git. Having worked with Next.js before is a plus

On this crash course, we'll create a new project in the headless CMS, fill it with data, and use the content to build a multilingual Next.js app. We'll spend a lot of time in code to:- Generate strongly typed models and structure for the content- Set up the site for multiple languages- Use respective language codes in content fetching and incorporate language fallbacks- Resolve multilingual content from rich text fields
You will learn:- How to work with content from headless CMS (Kontent.ai)- How content model can be leveraged to generate TS types and what benefits it brings to your project- How to add multilingual capabilities to Next.js website- How to use language fallbacks- What are the typical gotchas when working with multilingual content

Ensuring your code is ready for production without enabling your features to your entire user base used to involve a lot of guesswork. By using feature flags, we can allow our development teams to preview work-in-progress features and unreleased functionality in production without redeploying our code.
In this workshop, we’ll run through the fundamentals of feature flagging on both the client and server sides. We’ll cover working with LaunchDarkly’s SDKs within the context of a React application with a node backend, flagging at different places in the stack and give an introduction to rule targeting in the platform.

Next.js is a compelling framework that makes many tasks effortless by providing many out-of-the-box solutions. But as soon as our app needs to scale, it is essential to maintain high performance without compromising maintenance and server costs. In this workshop, we will see how to analyze Next.js performances, resources usage, how to scale it, and how to make the right decisions while writing the application architecture.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to build a Next.js app that uses Apollo Client to fetch data from a headless WordPress backend and use it to render the pages of your app. You’ll learn when you should consider a headless WordPress architecture, how to turn a WordPress backend into a GraphQL server, how to compose queries using the GraphiQL IDE, how to colocate GraphQL fragments with your components, and more.

Next.js is a compelling framework that makes many tasks effortless providing many out-of-the-box solutions. But when it comes to authentication and user security, it's our mission to make it reliable, secure, and efficient. In this workshop, we'll focus on different user authentication and session management approaches, starting from a custom authentication strategy (that we will build together), and ending learning how to identify and integrate the right auth provider (Auth0, Firebase, etc.) for any app.
Table of contents:- A brief introduction to Next.js- Building an authentication mechanism from scratch- Why we should avoid custom authentication- How to identify the proper authentication mechanism and provider- Integrating NextAuth.js, Auth0, Firebase, or any other provider

In this workshop we will build and deploy a full stack GraphQL application using Next.js, Neo4j, and Vercel. Using a knowledge graph of news articles we will first build a GraphQL API using Next.js API routes and the Neo4j GraphQL Library. Next, we focus on the front-end, exploring how to use GraphQL for data fetching with a Next.js application. Lastly, we explore how to add personalization and content recommendation in our GraphQL API to serve relevant articles to our users, then deploy our application to the cloud using Vercel and Neo4j Aura.

Table of contents:
- Next.js overview and getting started with Next.js
- API Routes with Next.js & building a GraphQL API
- Using the Neo4j GraphQL Library
- Working with Apollo Client and GraphQL data fetching in Next.js
- Deploying with Vercel and Neo4j Aura

Blitz.js is the Fullstack React Framework. It's heavily inspired Ru on Rails and is focused on making you as productive as possible. It's built on Next.js and adds all the missing pieces you need for building a fullstack app with a database. By far the biggest innovation of Blitz is the new "Zero-API" data layer that abstracts away the API so you don't have to mess with REST or GraphQL APIs!

Simon will introduce all the important parts & guide you through getting started with Blitz, so you'll know if you might want to use it or not.

Jamstack frameworks are changing the way we build top-of-the-line experiences on the web. They are performant, secure and enable developers to build web apps faster than before. In this workshop, Nick DeJesus will walk you through what it's like to build an e-commerce site using NextJS, use-shopping-cart and theme-ui. You will learn how serverless functions with Netlify to help you make secure transactions and how to build accessible UI components that extend use-shopping-cart's abilities.

You'll learn how to build highly scalable cloud APIs with AWS and integrate them with Next.js and style them using Tailwind CSS.
