| # TypeScript Next.js Chakra example | |
| This is a really simple project that shows the usage of Next.js with TypeScript. | |
| ## Deploy your own | |
| Deploy the example using [Vercel](https://vercel.com): | |
| [](https://vercel.com/import/project?template=https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-typescript) | |
| ## How to use it? | |
| ### Using `create-next-app` | |
| Execute | |
| [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app) | |
| with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/init) or | |
| [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/create/) to bootstrap the example: | |
| ```bash | |
| 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: | |
| ```bash | |
| curl https://codeload.github.com/vercel/next.js/tar.gz/canary | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-canary/examples/with-typescript | |
| cd with-typescript | |
| ``` | |
| Install it and run: | |
| ```bash | |
| npm install | |
| npm run dev | |
| # or | |
| yarn | |
| yarn dev | |
| ``` | |
| Deploy it to the cloud with | |
| [Vercel](https://vercel.com/import?filter=next.js&utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example) | |
| ([Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment)). | |
| ## Notes | |
| This example shows how to integrate the TypeScript type system into Next.js. | |
| Since TypeScript is supported out of the box with Next.js, all we have to do is | |
| to install TypeScript. | |
| ``` | |
| npm install --save-dev typescript | |
| ``` | |
| To enable TypeScript's features, we install the type declarations for React and | |
| Node. | |
| ``` | |
| npm install --save-dev @types/react @types/react-dom @types/node | |
| ``` | |
| When we run `next dev` the next time, Next.js will start looking for any `.ts` | |
| or `.tsx` files in our project and builds it. It even automatically creates a | |
| `tsconfig.json` file for our project with the recommended settings. | |
| Next.js has built-in TypeScript declarations, so we'll get autocompletion for | |
| Next.js' modules straight away. | |
| 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, for example, in your `test` scripts. | |
