Download create-next-app to bootstrap the example:

npm i -g create-next-app
create-next-app --example with-reasonml with-reasonml-app

Download manually

Download the example or clone the repo:

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

npm run build
npm run dev

Deploy it to the cloud with now (download)

Recommendation:

Run BuckleScript build system bsb -w and next -w separately. For the sake of simple convention, npm run dev run both bsb and next concurrently. However, this doesn't offer the full colorful and very, very, veeeery nice error output experience that ReasonML can offer, don't miss it!

The idea behind the example

This example features:

• An app that mixes together JavaScript and ReasonML components and functions
• An app with two pages which has a common Counter component
• That Counter component maintain the counter inside its module. This is used primarily to illustrate that modules get initialized once and their state variables persist in runtime
