This is a really simple project that shows the usage of Next.js with TypeScript.
My goal was to create a Stripe integrated "donation" site to familiarize myself with the API and to have fun with the Pokemon API. Currently only displaying lists and individual pages of pokemon with a Stripe donation connection (DO NOT ENTER REAL INFO). On Facebook/Meta, there is a group called Wild Green Memes for Ecological Fiends, and every year they have a Charity battle where people "join gangs" and make memes to gather donations (learn more here). I wanted to have the same idea but with Pokemon.
Future features I hope to add: The actual ranking page on the index to show Pokemon with the most donations.
Deploy the example using Vercel or preview live with StackBlitz
Execute create-next-app
with npm, Yarn, or pnpm to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example with-typescript with-typescript-app
yarn create next-app --example with-typescript with-typescript-app
pnpm create next-app --example with-typescript with-typescript-app
Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
This example shows how to integrate the TypeScript type system into Next.js. Since TypeScript is supported out of the box with Next.js, all we have to do is to install TypeScript.
npm install --save-dev typescript
To enable TypeScript's features, we install the type declarations for React and Node.
npm install --save-dev @types/react @types/react-dom @types/node
When we run next dev
the next time, Next.js will start looking for any .ts
or .tsx
files in our project and builds it. It even automatically creates a tsconfig.json
file for our project with the recommended settings.
Next.js has built-in TypeScript declarations, so we'll get autocompletion for Next.js' modules straight away.
A type-check
script is also added to package.json
, which runs TypeScript's tsc
CLI in noEmit
mode to run type-checking separately. You can then include this, for example, in your test
scripts.
