Jamstack site created with Stackbit

Stackbit Nextjs V2

The NextJs core starter for Staaaackbit.

Quickstart

npm install

npm run dev

Add a new page

Create a new markdown file content/pages/new-page.md with the following frontmatter.

---
title: 'New Example Page'
layout: 'AdvancedLayout'
sections:
  - type: HeroSection
    variant: variant-a
    colors: colors-a
    elementId: ''
    width: wide
    height: short
    topGap: small
    bottomGap: small
    alignHoriz: left
    alignVert: middle
    badge:
      label: New Collaboration
      elementId: ''
    title: The quick, brown fox jumps over **a lazy dog**
    text: >-
      Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium
      doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae. explicabo.
    actions:
      - type: Button
        url: '#'
        label: Apply Now
        style: primary
        elementId: ''
      - type: Button
        url: '#'
        label: Learn more
        style: secondary
    feature:
      type: ImageBlock
      url: /images/fishing.jpg
      altText: Image alt text
      caption: Image caption
---

Visit http://localhost:3000/new-page/ to see the new page.

Note: The pages url will match the file path - content/pages/new-page.md will resolve to /new-page. A nested folder like content/pages/blog/index.md will resolve to /blog/

Add a menu item

Menu items are configured in content/data/config.json. Edit the config file and add a new menu object to the primaryLinks array.

// content/data/config.json
{
  "navBar": {
    // ...
    "primaryLinks": [
      // ...
      {
        "type": "Link",
        "label": "My New Page",
        "url": "/new-page",
        "altText": ""
      }
    ],
    // ...
  }
}

Adding more sections to the page

Add a 🧩 CtaSection to the page by adding the component to the the sections array.

# content/pages/new-page.md
---
title: 'New Example Page'
layout: 'AdvancedLayout'
sections: # sections array
  - type: 'HeroSection'
    # ...
  - type: 'CtaSection'
    variant: 'variant-a'
    width: 'wide'
    height: 'auto'
    alignHoriz: 'center'
    title: "Let's do this"
    text: 'The Stackbit theme is flexible and scalable to every need. It can manage any layout and any screen.'
    actions:
      - type: 'Button'
        url: '/contact'
        label: 'Get Started'
        style: 'primary'
---

Component Library: The Stackbit Component Library has full documentation on each component including the available props and frontmatter.

Component Examples

• 🧩 CtaSection
• 🧩 ContactSection
• 🧩 FeaturedPeopleSection
• 🧩 FeaturedPostsSection

Adding your own components

In this example we will create a new component that displays a grid of logos.

Create a new react component in src/components/LogoSection.js:

import React from 'react';

const LogoSection = (props) => {
  const { logos, title } = props;
  return (
    <div className="max-w-screen-xl mx-auto px-4 sm:px-6 py-14 lg:py-20 mt-10 mb-10 text-center">
      <h1 className="text-3xl tracking-tight sm:text-4xl mb-2">{title}</h1>
      <div className="flex justify-center items-center">
        {(logos || []).map((logo, index) => (
          <div className="p-6" key={index}>
            <img className="mb-2" height="60px" width="60px" src={logo.image} />
            <h2 className="text-sm text-gray-400">{logo.name}</h2>
          </div>
        ))}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

export default LogoSection;

Register the component in src/components/register-components.js:

import dynamic from 'next/dynamic';
import { registerComponents } from '@stackbit/components';
import { componentsMap } from '@stackbit/components/dist/components-map';

registerComponents({
  // Register all Stackbit components
  ...componentsMap,

  // Override any static or dynamic component,
  // or register your own dynamic component.
  LogoSection: dynamic(() => import('./LogoSection'))
});

☝️ When registering dynamic components (i.e.: dynamic(() => import('...'))) the key should be the model name. In our case, the model name matches the component name so the key is LogoSection.

By registering the LogoSection component, page components will be able to access and render this component.

Create a new model file at .stackbit/models/LogoSection.yaml which describes the data consumed by the LogoSection component:

type: object
name: LogoSection
label: Logo section
groups:
  - sectionComponent
fields:
  - type: string
    name: title
  - type: list
    name: logos
    items:
      type: object
      fields:
        - type: string
          name: name
        - type: image
          name: image

☝️ By adding the sectionComponent to the group property you declare that the LogoSection object can be added to any content field that allows embedding objects belonging to that group. One of such fields is the sections field of the PageLayout model.

Now add the LogoSection object to the list of sections in the home page located at content/pages/index.md:

---
title: Home
layout: AdvancedLayout
sections:
  - type: HeroSection
    ...
  - type: LogoSection
    title: "Our Partners"
    logos:
      - name: 'Stackbit'
        image: '/images/stackbit.svg'
      - name: 'NextJs'
        image: '/images/nextdotjs.svg'
---

Download the images and place them in the /public/images/ folder.

Extending a Stackbit component

In this example we will extend an existing Stackbit component.

Understanding Layouts

Explain how layouts work.

• How does the layout field work?
• How does the layout field effect which frontmatter fields can be used?
• The layout is both a component and a model. Explain this concept.

Editing the CSS

This theme uses Tailwind CSS and PostCSS. The tailwind.config.js includes our default style as a preset.

Changing the preset

You can use any preset from 🎨 Stackbit Styles

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  presets: [require('@stackbit/components/styles/retro/tailwind.retro.config')]
  // ...
};

Editing the Tailwind config

You can override any of the preset values in the extend object. In this example we change the themes primary color.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  ...
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colors: {
          primary: '#207bea'
      }
    }
  },
  ...
};

Changing CSS Styles

The CSS is located in src/css/main.css. The default style is imported from the Stackbit components library - @import '@stackbit/components/styles/default/style.css';

You can add your own custom css or override existing styles.

// src/css/main.css

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

@import '@stackbit/components/styles/default/style.css';

@layer components {
  .sb-badge {
    @apply uppercase;
  }
  .page-example {
    .component-content-section {
      .component-badge {
        padding: 10px 20px;
        text-transform: uppercase;
        border-radius: 3px;
      }
    }
  }
}
