In this video, You will start by installing NextJS and we will cover what is required. Then we will jump into the file structure and look into where files are located and where will our code go.
Explore Next.js routing by building pages and nested routes with folder structure, using a shared layout to persist UI across routes like profile and its settings.
Explore how to capture route data in Next.js using params and search params, for both server and client components, including dynamic and catch-all routes.
Learn how to fetch data from an API in Next.js server and client components, using updated fetch options, no cache, loading states, and JSON responses.
Build a Next.js project that fetches product data from an API and displays it across routes, using create next app and Tailwind, then run the dev server.
Build a three-column products list in Next.js using Tailwind and Shad UI, rendering product cards with images and dynamic routes to product pages.
Learn to implement a loading state in a Next.js product page by building and styling a skeleton placeholder, wiring a loading component, and exploring data fetching with params.
Build a new Next.js project, explore route handlers, and implement CRUD operations—get all lists, post, update, and delete—while learning API building and caching strategies.
Explore the project diagram, set up a Next.js app with Tailwind and Chassis, connect MongoDB via Prisma, and implement API route handlers using get, post, put, and delete.
Build a list box form with a title input and description text area, including a submit button, styled with a flex column layout for a centered app Listify.
Learn to implement an edit flow with an edit button opening a dialog, manage open state with useState, and update title and description via a put request to the API.
Learn to build an add talent form with name, email, title, and skills, wire it to the database using server actions, and display talent cards by mapping fetched data.
Use a server action to collect form data and create talent records with Prisma, capturing name, email, title, and skills for MongoDB storage via a post request.
Create a talent card, show talent data, and enable delete, edit, and hire me actions wired to a server action using Prisma to delete from MongoDB with hidden id input.
Build an editable talent profile by launching a dialog form to update name, email, title, and skills, then save changes with responsive state handling.
Set up next auth with GitHub provider in a Next.js project, configure env vars, routes, and Prisma adapter to connect authentication data to MongoDB.
Create and style a navbar component in a Next.js app, featuring a logo, avatar from session, and sign in/out logic with next image and CDN fonts.
Use date-fns to format relative post dates with format distance, show created at times, and implement a secure delete action using authentication, hidden post id, and next.js actions.
During the landing page fix, the lesson uses session data to show content only when the user is authenticated, prompting login and enabling post creation with TypeScript forms.
Conclude the full stack Next.js course by demonstrating how to add an update feature to posts, envisioning a Twitter clone, and inviting viewers to follow on YouTube and leave reviews.
