### Accept payments & sell products powered by Stripe and the best of the JAMStack

There are as many ways to build an e-commerce store on the internet as there are products to sell. One thing is for certain, e-commerce is here to stay and as professional developers we need to understand how to build fully custom stores for our clients using the best modern tools available.

- React: flexible and customizable while following modern best practices
- Next.js: lightening fast with guide rails to help your project perform as consumers expect
- Stripe Checkout: lets you offload reams of complicated business logic to a trusted third party that maintains regulatory compliance, global payments, and a standard UX.

Your store will have well managed local component state using React Hooks and you'll also have clear and cohesive shared (global) state with React Context.

Finally you'll deploy your custom store to Vercel (the platform behind Next.js) as well as how to make your Next.js e-commerce store portable to deploy to other platforms.

Databases are essential for any full-stack applications, but working with them is traditionally very difficult. Prisma is here to change that. It's a powerful database toolkit that helps us think in data itself - not SQL, not classes, just the data we care about in our apps.

In this series, we will learn how to leverage the power of Prisma to automatically generate a type-safe, autocomplete-ready, and efficient query builder, all based on a simple and easy-to-read schema. We will integrate all this good stuff into a Next.js project to complete a simple social network app.

In the end, you will be able to understand how Prisma works, and confidently start using Prisma in your own project.

Prisma is an open-source database toolkit. It replaces traditional ORMs and makes database access easy with an auto-generated query builder for TypeScript & Node.js.

[Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) is a fantastic framework that allows us to build performant server-side rendered React apps with ease.

In this series, we will learn how to utilize the powerful features of Next.js 9, like API routes and Static Site Generation (SSG), to build full-stack React apps. We will use [Auth0](https://auth0.com) to handle user authentication and authorization, and we'll also learn how to integrate the excellent [Chakra UI](https://chakra-ui.com/) component library into our Next.js project to make it a breeze to build beautiful and modularized user interfaces. Finally, we will import and deploy our project from GitHub to [Vercel](https://vercel.com), the deployment platform built by the creators of Next.js.

This collection will still be continuously updated with new and more advanced content. Subscribe to the RSS feed to get notified of the latest lessons!

Introduction to Next.js 9

With the release of `Next.js` v9+, we've been handed the tools to create full-stack react apps with ease. 

This collection will dive into the fundamentals of API & Dynamic routing, handling data from local json and a DB, plus deployment options. 

This collection will be an ongoing collection, where I continue adding more videos over time 😃

This is the video companion to the [egghead.io Instructor Guide](https://howtoegghead.com/instructor/).

Screencasting is hard! There are virtually infinite ways to produce one. For an egghead.io lesson we expect several key aspects to be met. We want to make sure that our lessons have depth and clarity. Clarity is important and starts with the technical aspects of recording your screen and voice. Once we have achieved this objective level of clarity, we dip into the stylistic aspects of recording a lesson. The style is subjective, and the goal of an egghead.io lesson is not to have an army of uniform drone producing flavorless video content for the masses.

Our mission is to make you a badass screencaster. We want to push you to another level. We've found that a small set of standard practices will create an awesome experience for the student, and eliminate frustration as we teach by providing a repeatable pattern for success. It’s not complicated. In fact, it is simple, but it isn’t easy.


This course will show you how to produce an egghead.io lesson. We strive for consistency in style, and these lessons will demonstrate the core elements that create our brand screencasts. Let’s learn how together.

Bite-size video tutorials for badass web developers.

Miscellaneous one-off lessons on debugging, productivity hacks, and JavaScript tricks.

JavaScript® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

Your page is showing high CPU usage and spinning up your laptop fan, but nothing is visibly happening. What is it doing, and why is it so slow?

This lesson is a real-world performance diagnosis of this very page, right here on egghead. Two infinite (but hidden) animations were causing CPU usage to spike, and Chrome's Task Manager and Performance tools helped uncover the elements causing the problem. You'll see how to use the profiler to record a snapshot, and learn a trick for discovering animations running in the background.

Diagnose a Slow Page Using Developer Tools

codesandbox.io provides one of the fastest ways to start a new React project. In this lesson, we will take a first look at codesandbox, its interface, and the default React project it creates.

Next.JS works with any CSS-in-JS solution, including Styled Components. But to get it working with Next.JS's server-side rendering, you'll need to do some configuration.

In this lesson I go through the steps required to get it working properly, including adding `babel-plugin-styled-components` to your project and overriding the `Document` page to inject your styles into the `<Head>` of the page.

For reference, please see Styled Components' [guide to SSR](https://www.styled-components.com/docs/advanced#server-side-rendering), and the Next.JS [sample repository for Styled Components](https://github.com/zeit/next.js/tree/master/examples/with-styled-components).

In this lesson, we will learn how to initialize a Next.js 9 project with TypeScript support from scratch.

Initialize a Next.js 9 project with TypeScript

Next.js treats single-file components in the `/pages/` directory as pages, so we need to work around this abstraction to access and modify the `<head>` element of the page. In this lesson, we will learn how to render the `<head>` element dynamically with a constantly updated title in Next.js 9, and see how this feature can be helpful for loading custom fonts.

Render the <head /> element dynamically in Next.js

Next.js uses a file-system based router, meaning that it treats single-file components in the `/pages/` directory as pages. In this lesson, we will set up multiple pages and use `next/link` to navigate across different routes, and see how to create dynamic routes, and parse URL query strings.

We will be using TypeScript, but for this specific lesson, no changes need to be made if you are using JavaScript.
