Next.js: the React framework

Ever struggle with structuring ReactJS apps, and all the tooling that it requires? Next.js is the perfect way to learn and use it, to build small and stable applications; that have ReactJS front-ends. In this talk, we'll look at how to build these kinds of apps. We'll also look at topics like animation and tools like styled components.

You'll soon forget about your Webpack worries, as Next.js lets you focus on what you want to build.

You don't need to know anything about Next.js to attend this talk, but familiarity with ReactJS will be useful.


This is a great introduction to full-stack JS/React development, using Next.js. Attendees will learn everything they need to know, in order to build real applications in record time. It also describes how to use popular tools, like Styled Components and React Spring; to bring polish to an already-great Server-side Rendered React app.

All with zero JS build chain configuration.

Topics include:

  • Getting started with Next.js (with zero Webpack/Babel configuration)
  • Using Styled Components
  • Using React Spring (animation)
  • Building APIs
  • Communicating between front-end and back-end
  • Hosting JS apps on Digital Ocean and Laravel Forge
  • Getting domain names and SSL certificates
