This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app and modified with some useful utilities, components, and settings that we (Input Logic) often need.
Start by creating a .env.local file in the project root. You can use the 1Password Generator to create a random session secret easily.
NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV=dev
API_URL=http://localhost:8000 or http://localhost:8000/api depending on your setup
SESSION_SECRET=[RANDOM-32-CHARACTER-STRING]
Now install and run the project:
pnpm install
pnpm run dev
Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
Now that your frontend is running, you'll need an API. For a local development API, setup the Ninja Starter.
If you'd like to skip this step, simply update your .env.local file to point to our staging API on Heroku:
API_URL=https://ninja-starter-9ee94834650e.herokuapp.com

This project includes react-email for creating HTML emails with React components. Email templates are located in the emails/ directory. Note that this app is not responsible for sending any emails at this time.
To run the react-email server (for development) run pnpm run email
For example templates and documentation, visit: https://react.email/templates
Next Starter supports Storybook, a component documentation tool. Adding stories for components is entirely optional, but it is encouraged for any components that are reused in many locations.
run storybook:
pnpm run storybook
