This tutorial is an adaptation of Pierre’s Nuxt and Strapi Deliveroo clone . here This tutorial will be adapted to use (React) over Nuxt (Vue) on the front end, complete with . Next.js GraphQL, Stripe, Strapi and React Context Get ready to develop a ! From signup to order, you are going to let users discover restaurants, dishes and select their happy meal. Deliveroo clone, using amazing technologies: Next.js ( React ), GraphQL , Stripe and Strapi The should make you hungry: demo of the final result . Note: the source code is available on GitHub : https://github.com/strapi/strapi-examples/tree/master/nextjs-react-strapi-deliveroo-clone-tutorial Screenshots of final product: Strapi: is the most advanced open-source used to build scalable, secure, production ready API’s quickly and efficiently saving developers countless hours of development. Strapi Node.js Headless Content Management System With its extensible plugin system, it provides a large set of built-in features: Admin Panel, Authentication & Permissions management, Content Management, API Generator, etc. Unlike online CMS, (take a look at the ), which means: Strapi is 100% open-source GitHub repository Strapi is . completely free You can , so you own the data. host it on your own servers It is entirely , thanks to the plugin system. customizable and extensible Next.js: is a lightweight development framework to create static, server rendered applications in . Next.js will take care of the heavy lifting of the application such as and allow us to focus on the application. Next React code splitting, HMR (hot module replacement) and SSR (server side rendering) React: is one of the most popular front end Javascript frameworks, developed by facebook and used by countless tech companies including to build applications. React is a declarative library that makes it easy to create interactive user interfaces, keeping the code base organized through its . React Netflix, Airbnb and Github component based architecture GraphQL: is a query language also developed by Facebook to allow the front end of an application to easily query an application’s API. Each query requests only the data needed to be rendered by the current view. This allows the developer to craft a great user experience across . GraphQL multiple devices and screen sizes Stripe: is one of (if not the largest) payment processor’s for application today. Stripe has developed the tools and SDKs to allow developers to craft and integrate into any app with easy. Stripe secure, compliant payment processing Table of contents 🏗️ Setup Next To setup Next.js we will need an empty directory to install the library and host our project root. We will split our project into two parts, one for the front end (Next.js code) and one for the backend (Strapi code). mkdir strapi-deliveroocd strapi-deliveroomkdir frontendcd frontend

yarn add next react react-dom . Note: I am using yarn as my package manager, you can also use npm and execute _npm install --save next react react-dom_ Add the following to your file: package.json "scripts": {  "dev": "next",  "build": "next build",  "start": "next start"} So that your file looks like this (your package dependencies may have different versions depending on the time of install): {  "dependencies": {    "next": "^7.0.2",    "react": "^16.6.1",    "react-dom": "^16.6.1",  },  "scripts": {    "dev": "next",    "build": "next build",    "start": "next start"  }} Next.js uses any JavaScript file in the directory as the routes for the application. To setup simply create the directory and add an file with: /pages /pages index.js mkdir pagescd pagestouch index.js Now that we have our main route (index.js), this will be loaded each time the browser URL is at the root (i.e. To test this you can insert the following into the index.js file: www.yourapp.com). export default () => <div>Welcome to next.js!</div> To view the application running, start the local dev server using: yarn dev Your application should now be visible at . http://localhost:3000 Be sure to create a in the project root and add and directories to it: .gitignore .next node_modules cd .. touch .gitignore

/* .gitignore */ node_modules .next Adding Bootstrap For this tutorial, we will use to implement Bootstrap 4 into our application. For the CSS styling we will import directly from a CDN. react-strap First install Reactstrap: yarn add reactstrap bootstrap is simply a front end library to easily create Bootstrap components and styling. reactstrap To import the CSS and share a Layout component across all our pages we will use a custom file inside the . _app.js pages directory This file will serve to override the default App.js used by Next and be rendered on each page, allowing us to set global styles/shared components in one place. You can read more about the handling here: . _app.js https://nextjs.org/docs/#custom-app This will allow us the ability to import a component and globally set the stylesheet inside the header. <Head> cd pagestouch _app.js Path: /frontend/pages/_app.js Now if we add in some reactstrap components inside of we should see the bootstrap styling applied once we restart our server. index.js Path: /frontend/pages/index.js Restart your server to apply the new changes. Designing the page Now that we have Bootstrap running inside of our Next.js project, we can begin to style the basic shared front end components like the navbar. First create a folder to store our components and create our layout component: cd ..  mkdir components  cd components  touch Layout.js Nextjs uses the component to perform the client side routing between pages. The Link component is just a Higher Order Component and can accept any html tag that can handle an onClick handler ( , , etc.). <Link> <a> <button> <div> This will cause us to have to make a few modifications outside of the reactstrap documentation. To style our navbar we can use the built in CSS in JS shipped by default with nextjs. <style jsx> Inserting CSS in JS as: <style jsx> {`    a { color: yellow }`}</style> Allows us to scope CSS to the components the style tag is rendered in, you can also pass in the global option to set a global style: <style jsx global> You can read more on CSS in JS in the Next documents . here Open the file and create the shared layout components and insert the Stripe script (for later) as follows: Layout.js Path: /frontend/components/Layout.js Edit the file to use the new Layout component: index.js Path: /frontend/pages/index.js You should now have a shared header bar across all your pages: We will create two additional pages to allow users to sign in and sign up at and respectively. /signin /signup You will need to create the corresponding files inside the directory for next to recognize the routes. /pages cd ..  cd pagestouch signin.js  touch signup.js Populate the files with the following code that we will come back to once our Strapi server is setup. Path: /frontend/pages/signup.js Path: /frontend/pages/signin.js You should now see the routes at . http://localhost:3000 Strapi Having a frontend is good, but your app obviously needs a backend to manage users, restaurants, dishes and orders. To make the magic happen, let’s create a Strapi API. Install Strapi Requirements: please make sure to use Node 9 (or more) and have either MongoDB , Postgres or MySQL installed and running on your machine. Install Strapi using npm: npm i strapi@alpha -g Note: Strapi v3 is still an alpha version, but it will be fine for this tutorial. Generate a Strapi project Scaffold your API inside the through a single command line: strapi-deliveroo Install a strapi server in a directory called : backend cd ..  cd ..  strapi new backend The CLI will ask you to choose your database: select MongoDB, Postgres or MySQL. Then, fill the database information in. The default values should work if you correctly installed the database system on your machine. Start the server Launch the Node.js server: cd backend  strapi start Starting now, you should be able to visit the admin panel of your project: . http://localhost:1337/admin Create your first User Add your first user from the . registration page Good job, you successfully setup both Next.js and Strapi projects! 🎉 🏠 In the next section, you will learn how to display the : . list of restaurants https://blog.strapi.io/strapi-next-restaurants/ Originally published by Ryan Belke at blog.strapi.io on November 12, 2018.
