Create-nextpt-app NPM

Create a Next.JS App with Prisma and TypeScript.

Simple Next.JS boilerplate for initializing a Next.JS project with Prisma ORM and TypeScript.

Next.JS for hybrid rendering strategies, serverless function API routes, and page-based routing
Prisma ORM for quick integration to an externally hosted database, migration, and seeding
TypeScript for typing and Intellisense to reduce build-time errors
ESLint + Prettier configured to work together nicely (ESLint to check for problems, Prettier to maintain styling)
Sensible and flexible directory structure for any project
Comes with all of the above already configured so that you can focus on building

npx create-nextpt-app [project name]

npx prisma init

Point Prisma to your database by modifying the DATABASE_URL env variable.
Set the provider of the datasource block in schema.prisma to match your database (PostGRES, etc.)
if the database is not configured already, define your tables in the schema.prisma file

prisma db push

to create your tables in your database

npm install @prisma/client

to install the Prisma client for your application.

That's it! Simply import 'prisma' from /lib/prisma.ts anywhere you need to make a query to your database!

Enforce linting and styling Simply set Prettier to be the default formatter in your IDE and you are all set! ESLint and Prettier are already configured to play nicely with each other, with ESLINT dedicated to detecting possible problems and Prettier dedicated to maintaining code quality with styling. (Recommended: set Prettier to format on each save).
Miscellaneous All of the usual Next.JS scripts are ready to go: dev for starting the development server, build for making a production build, and start for checking out that build.

Enjoy!
