Getting Started

Start the server First, run the development server:

  npm run dev

This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

Convert Next.js12 to Next.js13 by modifying next.config.js with

  experimental: {
    appDir: true,
  }

Create an app folder with page.tsx and delete index.js to avoid conficts. Now, create head.tsx and layout.tsx and import the globals.css in layout file.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
