How to use the src directory and absolute imports in Next.js

#NextJS

#Dev

I'm super excited that this is finally a thing so all of my source code (src, get it) can live in the src directory and I can import it using absolute imports.

 
  • Make a tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json file
  • Add the baseUrl option:
  • {
    "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "./src"
    }
    }

    That's it 🎉

     

    If you're a WebStorm user make sure to right click the src directory and click "Mark as resource root".
