🏃‍♂️ Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the Next.js PWA Template and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See Deploy for notes on how to lunch your PWA app in live.

📚 Before You Begin

Before you begin i recommend you read about the basic building blocks that assemble a Next.js PWA Template:

• React.js - React's Official Website is a great starting point. You can also use W3Schools Popular Guide, and Egghead Videos.

• Next.js - The best way to understand Next.js is through its Official Website, which has a Getting Started guide, You can also go through this TutorialsPoint Guide for more resources.

• TypeScript - Go through TypeScript Official Website and proceed to their Official Manual, which should help you understand TypeScript better.

• Node.js - Start by going through Node.js Official Website and this StackOverflow Thread, which should get you going with the Node.js platform in no time.

🖥️ Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed all of the following prerequisites on your development machine:

• Git - Download & Install Git. OSX and Linux machines typically have this already installed.
• Node.js - Download & Install Node.js and the npm package manager. If you encounter any problems, you can also use this GitHub Gist to install Node.js.

NOTE: This project requires NodeJS (version 14 or later) and NPM. Node and NPM are really easy to install.

🛫 Quick Start

There are several ways you can get the Next.js PWA Template:

🌀 Cloning The GitHub Repository

The recommended way to get Next.js PWA Template is to use git to directly clone the repository:

# Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/AjayKanniyappan/nextjs-pwa-template.git <your-project-name>

# Enter the project directory
cd <your-project-name>

This will clone the latest version of the Next.js PWA Template repository to a nextjs-pwa-template folder.

🗃️ Downloading The Repository Zip File

Another way to use the Next.js PWA Template is to download a zip copy from the main branch on GitHub. You can also do this using the wget command:

wget https://github.com/AjayKanniyappan/nextjs-pwa-template/archive/refs/heads/main.zip -O nextjs-pwa-template-main.zip; unzip nextjs-pwa-template-main.zip; rm nextjs-pwa-template-main.zip

Don't forget to rename nextjs-pwa-template-main after your project name.

🧰 Quick Install

Once you've downloaded the Template and installed all the prerequisites, you're just a few steps away from starting to develop your Progressive Web App using Next.js.

The Template comes pre-bundled with a package.json file that contain the list of modules you need to start your application.

To install the dependencies, run this in the application folder from the command-line:

# Install dependency
npm install

Or if you prefer using Yarn:

# Install dependency
yarn install

This command does a few things:

• First it will install the dependencies needed for the application to run.
• If you're running in a development environment, it will then also install development dependencies needed for testing and running your application.

👨‍💻 Starting Development

Use your favorite JavaScript Package Managers npm or yarn or pnpm

🏃 Running Your Application

Run your application using npm:

npm run dev

Or if you prefer using Yarn:

yarn dev

Your Next.js application should run on port 5050 with the development environment configuration, so in your browser just go to http://localhost:5050

That's it! Your application should be running. To
