# Global Stylesheet example
This is an example of how you can include a global stylesheet in a next.js webapp.
## How to use
Download the example [or clone the repo](https://github.com/zeit/next.js):
```bash
curl https://codeload.github.com/zeit/next.js/tar.gz/master | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-master/examples/with-global-stylesheet
cd with-global-stylesheet
```
To get this example running you just need to
npm install .
npm run dev
Visit [http://localhost:300](http://localhost:300) and try to modify `styles/index.scss` changing color. Your changes should be picked up instantly.
Also see it working with plain css here

Deploy it to the cloud with [now](https://zeit.co/now) ([download](https://zeit.co/download))
```bash

```
## The idea behind the example
The strategy here is to transpile the stylesheet file to a css-in-js file so that it can be loaded and hot reloaded both on the server and the client. For this purpose I created a babel loader plugin called [babel-loader-wrap-in-js](https://github.com/davibe/babel-plugin-wrap-in-js).
Another babel plugin [module-resolver](https://github.com/tleunen/babel-plugin-module-resolver) enables us to import stylesheets from js (e.g. pages or components) through a `styles` directory alias rather than relative paths.
The `sass-loader` is configured with `includePaths: ['styles', 'node_modules']` so that your scss can `@import` from those places, again without relative paths, for maximum convenience and ability to use npm-published libraries. Furthermore, `glob` paths are also supported, so one could for example add `'node_modules/@material/*'` to the `includePaths`, which would make [material-components-web](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-web) (if you'd like) even easier to work with.
This project shows how you can set it up. Have a look at:
- .babelrc
- next.config.js
- pages/index.js
- styles/index.scss
