## What? Update examples `.gitignore` files for parity with [Yarn's official recommendations](https://v3.yarnpkg.com/getting-started/qa#which-files-should-be-gitignored), accounting for Yarn's modern Plug-n-Play functionality. ## Why? New projects initialized with `create-next-app` presently add various extraneous files from the Yarn cache to the initial commit. This is most notable in the case of the Next SWC binary, which may exceed 100M in some environments (empirically, 64-bit Darwin and WSL2 Ubuntu, and very probably other unix/linux environments), and prevent users from pushing their new projects to free GitHub repositories without rewriting the commit history to exclude the extraneous files, or unnecessarily setting up Git LFS to include them. ## How? I have errored on the side of exclusion to enable users to push their CNA projects to GitHub as-is and for parity with other package managers, while still providing the opportunity to opt in to additional functionality provided by modern Yarn. These changes follow the recommendations for **non**-[Zero-Install](https://yarnpkg.com/features/caching#zero-installs) configurations, as Zero-Install functionality is an extension on top of the base package manager experience, and may necessitate additional configuration and present additional complications for unsuspecting users, so I think it's best left up to the user to opt-in. On account of the majority of publicly available Next.js-based projects comprising general consumer-facing websites, it is my belief that the majority of Next projects would not benefit from Yarn's Zero-Install functionality, and that explicitly facilitating it by default would break status quo with all other non-Yarn CNA projects. Contrary to the example `.gitignore`s provided by Yarn, I've excluded the `.yarn/sdks` directory as it contains IDE-specific tooling; I feel it would be presumptuous for an environmentally-agnostic tool to target and provide package-manager-specific tooling for specific editors. This too should be left to the user to opt-in to and provide for their project if they deem necessary. I have retained the current `.gitignore`'s exclusion of the `/.pnp` directory for backwards compatibility with older versions of Yarn (the files therein have since been reallocated to the `.yarn` directory addressed by these changes, but I am not clear on when that delineation occurred or the prevalence of Yarn installations which depend on the former convention). Maintaining the exclusion here, in the worst case, implies additional downloads (on an order of magnitude merely similar to using npm from the outset) rather than failure.

A statically generated blog example using Next.js and Builder.io
This example showcases Next.js's Static Generation feature using Builder.io as the data source.
Demo
https://cms-builder-io.vercel.app/
How to use
Execute create-next-app with npm, Yarn, or pnpm to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example cms-builder-io cms-builder-io-app
yarn create next-app --example cms-builder-io cms-builder-io-app
pnpm create next-app --example cms-builder-io cms-builder-io-app
Configuration
Step 1 Install the Builder.io cli
npm install @builder.io/cli -g
Step 2 Generate a space
Signup for Builder.io, then go to your organization settings page, create a private key and copy it and supply it for [private-key] below. For [space-name] create a name for your space, such as "Blog"
cd cms-builder-io-app
builder create -k [private-key] -n [space-name] -d
This command when done it'll print your new space's public api key, copy it and add as the value for NEXT_PUBLIC_BUILDER_API_KEY into the .env files (.env.production and .env.development)
BUILDER_PUBLIC_KEY=...
Step 3 Run Next.js in development mode
npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn install
yarn dev
Your blog should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, you can post on GitHub discussions.
Step 4 Try preview mode
To try preview mode at any time while editing in Builder.io press view current draft, if you changed the secret defined in constants.js you'll need to also change it in your Post model settings.

Step 5 Deploy on Vercel
You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
Deploy Your Local Project
To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and import to Vercel.
Important: When you import your project on Vercel, make sure to click on Environment Variables and set them to match your .env.local file.
