I’ll help you set up a basic Next.js project using the code editor. I’ll create a basic structure with essential files.

I apologize for the error in the code editor. Let me break this down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Let’s start with the essential files one at a time.

I apologize for the continued errors with the code editor. Let me provide you with the steps to set up a Next.js project manually:

1.
First, create a new Next.js project using:
bash
1npx create-next-app@latest my-next-app

During the setup, you’ll be prompted with several questions:

1Would you like to use TypeScript? No / Yes 2Would you like to use ESLint? No / Yes 3Would you like to use Tailwind CSS? No / Yes 4Would you like to use `src/` directory? No / Yes 5Would you like to use App Router? No / Yes 6Would you like to customize the default import alias? No / Yes
2.
Once installed, navigate to the project:
bash
1cd my-next-app
3.
The basic project structure will look like this:
1my-next-app/ 2├── node_modules/ 3├── pages/ 4│ ├── _app.js 5│ └── index.js 6├── public/ 7├── styles/ 8│ └── globals.css 9├── .gitignore 10├── package.json 11└── README.md
4.
To run the development server:
bash
1npm run dev

Would you like me to show you the contents of any specific file, or would you like to proceed with adding any particular features to the basic setup?
