The Sitecore XM Cloud Next.js Starter is a pre-configured Next.js blog template designed to seamlessly integrate with Sitecore XM Cloud using the Sitecore JavaScript Rendering SDK (JSS). It provides developers with a foundation for building headless Sitecore solutions with Next.js, leveraging features like:
- Headless SXA Support: Includes example components and configurations for headless Sitecore Experience Accelerator (SXA).
- Data Fetching Options: Supports both GraphQL and REST for fetching data from the Sitecore API.
- Environment Variable Configuration: Streamlines deployment by utilizing environment variables for key configurations like JSS app name, API key, and host.
- Integration Guide: Offers links to Vercel's and Sitecore's official documentation for easy setup and deployment.
This starter is ideal for developers looking to quickly create and deploy a Next.js-powered blog connected to a Sitecore XM Cloud instance, taking advantage of modern development practices and headless architecture.
