A clone of the Next.js blog starter to make it easier to fork & import to Tina Cloud. 🦙
This example showcases Next.js's Static Generation feature using Markdown files as the data source.
The blog posts are stored in /_posts
as Markdown files with front matter support. Adding a new Markdown file in there will create a new blog post.
To create the blog posts we use remark
and remark-html
to convert the Markdown files into an HTML string, and then send it down as a prop to the page. The metadata of every post is handled by gray-matter
and also sent in props to the page.
https://next-blog-starter.vercel.app/
Deploy the example using Vercel:
Execute create-next-app
with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example blog-starter blog-starter-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example blog-starter blog-starter-app
Your blog should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, post on GitHub discussions.
Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
This blog-starter uses Tailwind CSS. To control the generated stylesheet's filesize, this example uses Tailwind CSS' v2.0 purge
option to remove unused CSS.
