This example shows the most basic idea behind Next. We have 2 pages: pages/index.js
and pages/about.js
. The former responds to /
requests and the latter to /about
. Using next/link
you can add hyperlinks between them with universal routing capabilities. The day
directory shows that you can have subdirectories.
Deploy the example using Vercel:
Execute create-next-app
with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
npm init next-app --example hello-world hello-world-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example hello-world hello-world-app
Download the example:
curl https://codeload.github.com/vercel/next.js/tar.gz/canary | tar -xz --strip=2 next.js-canary/examples/hello-world
cd hello-world
Install it and run:
npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn
yarn dev
Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
