Next Js Template

The Nextjs template is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

CartDevkit support Nextjs boilerplate template with TailwindCSS and ChakraUI. This is a starter kit with no additional boilerplate code. It's a perfect starter kit to get your project started on Cartesi.

When working on the frontend, here are the required steps:

  • Navigate into the frontend project directory

  • Install all required dependencies using either npm i or yarn install

Environment Variables

Once you generate the frontend template, ensure to create a .env file and provide your project Id as it's an important requirement when working with Rainbowkit and wagmi.

Your .env file should look like this 👇

If you are not working on localhost, replace the values here to match with your deployed urls and the correct RPC url obtained from any of the node service providers of your choice. You can obtain your WALLET_CONNECT_PROJECT_ID from here.

NEXT_PUBLIC_WALLET_CONNECT_PROJECT_ID = 61aeba5659fdc68cec3a40d7359401de
NEXT_PUBLIC_DAPP_ADDRESS = 0xab7528bb862fb57e8a2bcd567a2e929a0be56a5e
