Example app with chakra-ui and TypeScript

This example features how to use chakra-ui as the component library within a Next.js app with TypeScript.

Next.js and chakra-ui have built-in TypeScript declarations, so we'll get autocompletion for their modules straight away.

We are connecting the Next.js _app.js with chakra-ui's Provider and theme so the pages can have app-wide dark/light mode. We are also creating some components which shows the usage of chakra-ui's style props.

Chakra has supported Gradients and RTL in v1.1. To utilize RTL, add RTL direction and swap.

If you don't have multi-direction app, you should make <Html lang="ar" dir="rtl"> inside _document.ts.
