TypeScript Next.js example

This is a really simple project that show the usage of Next.js with TypeScript.

How to use it?

Using create-next-app

Execute create-next-app with Yarn or npx to bootstrap the example:

npx create-next-app --example with-typescript with-typescript-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example with-typescript with-typescript-app

Download manually

Download the example:

curl https://codeload.github.com/zeit/next.js/tar.gz/canary | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-canary/examples/with-typescript
cd with-typescript

Install it and run:

npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn
yarn dev

The idea behind the example

Use the @zeit/next-typescript plugin to inject @babel/preset-typescript into Next.js, allowing for fast TypeScript transpilation. It also implements a tsconfig.json as recommended by the @zeit/next-typescript plugin page.

A type-check script is also added to package.json, which runs TypeScript's tsc CLI in noEmit mode to run type-checking separately. You can then include this in your test scripts, say, for your CI process.
