Quick Start
We recommend creating a new Dokz app using create-dokz-app
, which sets up everything automatically for you. To create a project, run:
npm init dokz-app
# or
yarn create dokz-app
After the installation is complete run npm run dev
to start the development server. Try editing pages/index.mdx
and see the result on your browser.
Manual Setup
warning: you should use
npm init dokz-app
if you don't have an existing next application
You can also install dokz
in an existing nextjs application:
npm install dokz @emotion/react @chakra-ui/react @emotion/styled framer-motion
Add the dokz provider to the main nextjs entrypoint
// _app.jsx
import { DokzProvider } from 'dokz'
import { ChakraProvider } from '@chakra-ui/react'
import React from 'react'
export default function App(props) {
const { Component, pageProps } = props
return (
<ChakraProvider>
<DokzProvider headerLogo={<img src='/logo.svg' width='100px' />}>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</DokzProvider>
</ChakraProvider>
)
}
Add withDokz
in the next.config.js
file
const { withDokz } = require('dokz/dist/plugin')
module.exports = withDokz()
