Motivation
I wanted to port my existing blog to Nextjs and Tailwind CSS but there was no easy out of the box template to use so I decided to create one. Design is adapted from Tailwindlabs blog.
I wanted it to be nearly as feature-rich as popular blogging templates like beautiful-jekyll and Hugo Academic but with the best of React's ecosystem and current web development's best practices.

Edit the layout in app or content in data. With live reloading, the pages auto-updates as you edit them.
Extend / Customize
data/siteMetadata.js - contains most of the site related information which should be modified for a user's need.
data/authors/default.md - default author information (required). Additional authors can be added as files in data/authors.
data/projectsData.js - data used to generate styled card on the projects page.
data/headerNavLinks.js - navigation links.

components/MDXComponents.js - pass your own JSX code or React component by specifying it over here. You can then use them directly in the .mdx or .md file. By default, a custom link, next/image component, table of contents component and Newsletter form are passed down. Note that the components should be default exported to avoid existing issues with Next.js.

app - pages to route to. Read the Next.js documentation for more information.
next.config.js - configuration related to Next.js. You need to adapt the Content Security Policy if you want to load scripts, images etc. from other domains.

Netlify
Netlify’s Next.js runtime configures enables key Next.js functionality on your website without the need for additional configurations. Netlify generates serverless functions that will handle Next.js functionalities such as server-side rendered (SSR) pages, incremental static regeneration (ISR), next/images, etc.
See Next.js on Netlify for suggested configuration values and more details.
Static hosting services / GitHub Pages / S3 / Firebase etc.
- Add
output: 'export'innext.config.js. See static exports documentation for more information. - Comment out
headers()fromnext.config.js. - Change
components/Image.tsxto use a standard<img>tag instead ofnext/image. Alternatively, to continue usingnext/image, you can use an alternative image optimization provider such as Imgix, Cloudinary or Akamai. See image optimization documentation for more details. - Remove
apifolder and components which call the server-side function such as the Newsletter component. Not technically required and the site will build successfully, but the APIs cannot be used as they are server-side functions. - Run
yarn build. The generated static content is in theoutfolder. - Deploy the
outfolder to your hosting service of choice or runnpx serve outto view the website locally.
