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

The command you provided is not mentioned in the provided extracts. However, you can create a new Next.js project with Tailwind CSS using the create-next-app command. Here's how to do it interactively:

npx create-next-app@latest

During the prompts, you'll be asked if you'd like to use Tailwind CSS with the project. Answer "Y" to include Tailwind CSS.

Alternatively, you can create a new Next.js project with Tailwind CSS non-interactively using the --tailwind flag:

npx create-next-app@latest your-project-name --tailwind

Replace your-project-name with the desired name for your project.

For more information, refer to the create-next-app documentation (https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/create-next-app).

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

What is src/directory? Should I use it with my project? @sweet thistle

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

#

The src directory is an alternative way to organize your Next.js project. Instead of having the special Next.js app or pages directories in the root of your project, you can place application code under the src directory.

To use the src directory, move the app Router folder or pages folder to src/app or src/pages respectively.

Good to know:

  • The /public directory should remain in the root of your project.
  • Config files like package.json, next.config.js, and tsconfig.json should remain in the root of your project.
  • src/app or src/pages will be ignored if app or pages are present in the root directory.
  • If you're using src, you'll probably also move other application folders such as /components or /lib.

Using the src directory is a matter of personal preference and project organization. If you find it helpful to have a dedicated folder for your application code, you can use the src directory in your project.

Configuring: src Directory

Save pages under the src directory as an alternative to the root pages directory.

'next' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file. @sweet thistle

It seems like you're trying to run a Next.js command, but the system doesn't recognize it. This issue might be caused by not having Next.js installed in your project or not using npx to run the command.

To resolve this issue, first, make sure you have Next.js installed in your project. You can install it by running:

npm install next react react-dom

After installing Next.js, you can use npx to run Next.js commands. For example, to start the development server, run:

npx next dev

npx comes with npm 5.2+ and higher. It allows you to run CLI commands without installing them globally.
