Hi @uneven spoke. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

To add Google Analytics to your Next.js project, you can use the @vercel/analytics package. Here's how to add the Analytics component to your app using the pages directory:

1. Install the @vercel/analytics package by running the following command in the root directory of your Next.js project:

pnpm i @vercel/analytics

2. Add the Analytics component to your main app file (pages/_app.tsx):

import type { AppProps } from 'next/app';
import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/react';
 
function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
 return (
 <>
 <Component {...pageProps} />
 <Analytics />
 </>
 );
}
 
export default MyApp;

Please note that this method uses Vercel's Analytics, which is a wrapper around the tracking script and offers seamless integration with Next.js. If you specifically want to use Google Analytics, you'll need to follow a different approach, which is not covered in the provided extracts.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

Hmm, I don't know enough to give you a confident answer yet. The provided extracts do not cover adding Google Analytics or Vercel's Analytics to the app directory in Next.js. However, you can refer to the Next.js documentation (https://nextjs.org/docs) for more information on working with the app directory.
