Next.js Example
This project is a note-taking app template built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, designed to demonstrate integration with Juno for app development. It showcases authentication, data storage, and file storage using Juno's Satellite container.
You can scaffold it using the following command, or browse the source code:
npm create juno@latest -- --template nextjs-example

Key Features
- Juno Integration: Uses Juno's Satellite for authentication, Datastore, and Storage.
- Authentication: Login/logout flow.
- Notes Collection: Users can create, view, and delete notes (text, with optional file URL).
- Images Collection: Supports file storage for images.
- Responsive UI: Built with Tailwind CSS for modern styling.
- Banner: Warns if the Satellite is not configured for local development.
Main Components
- src/app/: Next.js app directory, handles routing and layout.
- components/: Contains UI and logic for authentication, notes table, modal, banner, etc.
- types/note.ts: TypeScript interface for notes.
Data Structure
- NoteData (
src/types/note.ts
):
export interface NoteData {
text: string;
url?: string;
}
export type Note = Doc<NoteData>;
How to Run
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Start Juno local emulator:
important
Requires the Juno CLI to be available npm i -g @junobuild/cli
juno dev start
- Create a Satellite for local dev:
- Visit http://localhost:5866 and follow the instructions.
- Update
juno.config.mjs
with your Satellite ID.
- Create required collections:
notes
in Datastore: http://localhost:5866/datastoreimages
in Storage: http://localhost:5866/storage
- Start the frontend dev server (in a separate terminal):
npm run start
Juno-Specific Configuration
- juno.config.mjs: Defines Satellite IDs for development/production, build source, and predeploy steps.
Production Deployment
- Create a Satellite on the Juno Console for mainnet.
- Update
juno.config.mjs
with the production Satellite ID. - Build and deploy:
npm run build
juno deploy
Notes
- The app is intended as a starting point for Juno-based projects.
- All logic is in TypeScript and React function components.
- The app is fully client-side (Server Side Rendering is not supported yet) and interacts with Juno via the Satellite container.
