Dev workflow – kickstart-next-ssr

When to use

  • Cloning the repo and running the app for the first time
  • Running build, dev server, or lint
  • Knowing what GitHub Actions do (and do not do) for this project

Instructions

Prerequisites

  • Node.js and npm (versions aligned with your org; this repo uses Next.js 16 and React 19 per package.json)
  • A Contentstack stack, delivery/preview tokens, and .env values as described in README.md

Setup

  1. Clone: repository URL is https://github.com/contentstack/kickstart-next-ssr (see package.json repository.url).
  2. npm install
  3. Copy or create .env / .env.local with the NEXT_PUBLIC_* variables from README.md; never commit secrets.
  4. npm run dev — serves the App Router app with hot reload.

Common commands

ScriptPurpose
npm run devNext.js development server
npm run buildProduction build
npm startProduction server (after build)
npm run lintESLint via next lint

CI and automation

There is no workflow in this repo that runs npm ci, npm run build, or npm run lint by default. Use those commands locally before pushing when you change application code.

Pull requests

Follow your organization’s branch and review rules. Keep changes scoped; update README.md if env vars or setup steps change.
