Hello friends, welcome back on blog. Today in this blog post, I am going to tell you, How to use Next.js as frontend and Laravel 8 as backend?

For react js and next js new comers, please check the below link:

Friends now I proceed onwards and here is the working code snippet for How to use Next.js as frontend and Laravel 8 as backend? and please use this carefully to avoid the mistakes:

1. Firstly friends we need fresh next.js setup and for that we need to run below commands into our terminal and also w should have latest node version installed on our system:

npx create-next-app nextlaravel

cd nextlaravel

npm run dev

2. Now friends, we need to add bootstrap and axios(send request) into our next.js project and for that we need to run below command:

npm install bootstrap --save

npm install axios

npm run dev

3. Now, we need to add below code into our pages/index.js file or you can replace below code with existing one that you have into your pages/index.js file:

import React from 'react';
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
import axios from 'axios';
class Demo extends React.Component
{
    //initialize array variable
  constructor() {
    //super is used to access the variables
    super();
    this.state = {
       data: []
    }
    }
    componentDidMount() {
    //API request
    axios.get("http://localhost/therichpost/public/api/sample-restful-apis").then(response => {
    
    //getting and setting api data into variable
    this.setState({ data : response.data });
    
    })
    }
  render()
  {
    return (
        <div>
            <div className="jumbotron text-center mb-0">
                <h1>How to use Next.js as frontend and laravel 8 as backend?</h1>
            </div>
            <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm bg-dark">
                <ul class="navbar-nav">
                    <li class="nav-item">
                    <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 1</a>
                    </li>
                    <li class="nav-item">
                    <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 2</a>
                    </li>
                    <li class="nav-item">
                    <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 3</a>
                    </li>
                </ul>

            </nav>
            <div className="container mt-5 mb-5">
           
                    <h1>Demo Data</h1>
                    <table class="table table-bordered">
                    <thead>
                        <tr>
                        <th>Name</th>
                        <th>Website</th>
                        
                        </tr>
                    </thead>
                    <tbody>
                    {this.state.data.map((result) => {
                        return (
                        <tr>
                        <td>{result.name}</td>
                        <td>{result.domain}</td>
                        
                        </tr>
                        )})}
                    
                    </tbody>
                    </table>
               
            </div>
            <div className="jumbotron text-center mb-0">
                <h1>Footer</h1>
            </div>
        </div>
    )
  }
}
export default Demo;

4. Laravel 8 demo api that I have made into my routes/api.php file:

Route::get('sample-restful-apis', function()
{
    return response()->json([
        [
            'name' => 'Therichpost',
            'domain' => 'therichpost.com'
        ],[
            'name' => 'Therichpost',
            'domain' => 'therichpost.com'
        ],[
            'name' => 'Therichpost',
            'domain' => 'therichpost.com'
        ],[
            'name' => 'Therichpost',
            'domain' => 'therichpost.com'
        ],[
            'name' => 'Therichpost',
            'domain' => 'therichpost.com'
            ]
        ]);
});
