eCommerce TypeScript

next-prisma-ecommerce

This repo is for the Prisma Day 2021 workshop “Getting Started with Next.js and
Prisma”.
For this workshop, we work on an ecommerce app called Threadz.

Workshop Modules

The workshop has five modules.
There are “start” and “finish” branches for each module. Here are all the
branches:

  • main
  • 01-start
  • 01-finish
  • 02-start
  • 02-finish
  • 03-start
  • 03-finish
  • 04-start
  • 04-finish
  • 05-start
  • 05-finish

Here’s a breakdown of the modules including the topics covered:

1. Getting Started

  • Download the repo
  • Install dependencies
  • Tour the app

2. Initialize Prisma

  • Install Prisma dependencies
  • Initialize Prisma with prisma init
  • Provide data models for Product, Review, and User
  • Migrate the database with prisma migrate dev
  • Create a global prisma instance

3. Prepare the Database

  • Use Prisma Studio to write/view data
  • Seed the database with a seed script
  • Apply types

4. Prisma Queries

  • Call for data in getServerSideProps
  • Display product data on the page

5. Create Data with Prisma

  • Create an API route to handle new reviews
  • Optional: rework queries to get reviews from an API route

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

Installing Dependencies and Running the App

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the
result.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. 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.
