Features

  • 🧙‍♂️ E2E typesafety with tRPC
  • ⚡ Full-stack React with Next.js
  • 🌈 Database with Prisma
  • 🪳 Neon
  • 🌇 Image upload with R2
  • ⚙️ VSCode extensions
  • 🎨 ESLint + Prettier
  • 💚 CI setup using GitHub Actions:
  • 🔐 Env var validation

Quickstart

Follow these instructions if you are familiar with building applications, and/or are in a hurry to prepare an environment to work on your product.

If you are new, see our Getting Started guide.

If you are exploring what else you can do with Starter Kit, a more comprehensive set of documentation, including guides and tutorials, can be found here.

One-click deploy

We recommend Vercel to deploy your application. A one-click deployment step is provided below, which will also set up your own copy of this codebase on GitHub for you to work on.

This needs a few prerequisites, detailed below.

Prerequisites

The deployment needs a few environment variables to be set for it to function. They are:

Name What It Is Example
DATABASE_URL The connection string for your database. This should have been obtained from Neon postgresql://user:[email protected]/app?sslmode=require
POSTMAN_API_KEY An API key to send email via Postman asdfn_v1_6DBRljleevjsd9DHPThsKDVDSenssCwW9zfA8W2ddf/T
SESSION_SECRET A sequence of random characters used to protect session identifiers, generated by running npx uuid from your terminal 66a21b98-fb17-4259-ac4f-e94d303ac894

Deployment

Deploy with Vercel

Working on your product

You may work on the codebase with:

Using GitHub Codespaces

Follow the official GitHub guide for developing with a codespace.

Using your local developer environment

In summary:

Running the app locally

Install dependencies

npm i

Set environment variables

cp .env.example .env.development.local

Optionally set POSTMAN_API_KEY to send login OTP emails via Postman. If not set, OTP emails will be logged to the console instead.e

Retrieving client-side environment variables in code

⚠️ When adding client-only environment variables in NextJS, you must prefix the variable with NEXT_PUBLIC_ to ensure that the variable is exposed to the browser. For example, if you want to add a variable called MY_ENV_VAR, you should add it to your .env file as NEXT_PUBLIC_MY_ENV_VAR.

You will also need to update src/env.mjs to explicitly reference the variable so NextJS will correctly bundle the environment variable into the client-side bundle.

Start database

# Assumes that you have previously copied .env.example to .env.development.local
export $(grep DATABASE_URL .env.development.local | xargs) && npm run setup

Start server

npm run dev

Useful notes

Commands

npm run build      # runs `prisma generate` + `prisma migrate` + `next build`
npm run db:reset   # resets local db
npm run dev        # starts next.js
npm run setup      # starts postgres db + runs migrations + seed
npm run test-dev   # runs e2e tests on dev
npm run test-start # runs e2e tests on `next start` - build required before
npm run test:unit  # runs normal Vitest unit tests
npm run test:e2e   # runs e2e tests
