Issues

Dark mode

With CSS-Modules the "global" css-var .dark is not visible inside .module.css files, thus the Tailwind variant dark:x does not work.

In order for it to work inside module.css files you must leverage to :global, example:

:global(.dark) .title {
  @apply text-white;
}

Husky

If pre-commit hooks are not working be sure that you have installed husky: husky install.

By default this command should be triggered after yarn/npm deps are installed.

Why

I have created several NextJs webs recently. Setting the configs up is kinda the bottleneck for me to make the ideas simply come true within a very short time.

So I made this starter template for myself to create apps more easily, along with some good practices that I have learned from making those apps. Feel free to tweak it or even maintains your own forks.
