Getting Started

Quickstart

Generate a full-stack Next.js app and have it running locally in a couple of minutes.

•

Run the CLI

Start the interactive generator with your package manager:

$ npx @mxrcxs17/next-kit@latest
•

Answer the prompts

Nextkit walks you through your stack — project name, database, ORM, auth, API layer, payments, email, analytics, and tooling. Press Enter to accept the sensible default for any prompt. See CLI options for the full list.

•

Let it scaffold and install

The CLI generates your project and (unless you skip it) installs dependencies with the package manager you chose. When it finishes, you'll see a summary with the next steps.

•

Start the dev server

Move into your new project and run it:

$ cd my-app$ npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 to see your app.

Skipping the install
If you answer Yes to "skip install", the CLI generates the files but doesn't install dependencies. Run your manager's install command yourself afterwards (for example npm install).

What's next

Dig into the specific layer you picked — Database, ORM, Authentication, API layer, Payments, Email, or Analytics — to learn what was wired up and which environment variables to set.
