NextJS + Typescript + Eslint + Storybook + Jest + Enzyme
A Next.js boilerplate with TypeScript, ESLint, Storybook, Jest, and Enzyme configured for modern React development.
About this template
NextJS + Typescript + Eslint + Storybook + Jest + Enzyme is a boilerplate template that pre-configures a Next.js project with TypeScript, ESLint, Storybook, Jest, and Enzyme for React development. It is designed to give developers a ready-to-use environment for building production-grade web applications without manual configuration.
What is NextJS + Typescript + Eslint + Storybook + Jest + Enzyme?
This is a GitHub repository that serves as a starter kit for Next.js applications. The template integrates six tools: Next.js as the React framework, TypeScript for static typing, ESLint for code linting, Storybook for isolated component development, and Jest with Enzyme for unit testing. The repository is maintained by Caelin Sutch and includes a setup tutorial published on Medium, which explains the configuration process step by step. With 8 stars and topics like boilerplate, nextjs, storybook, and typescript, it is a small but focused resource for developers who want a pre-assembled toolchain.
Key Features
- TypeScript integration — The entire Next.js project is type-safe, allowing developers to catch type errors during development rather than at runtime. The configuration includes a tsconfig.json file that sets compiler options for strict typing and modern JavaScript features.
- ESLint setup — A linting configuration is included to enforce consistent code style and catch common JavaScript errors. It can be run manually or integrated into a pre-commit hook for automated checks.
- Storybook environment — Storybook is pre-wired into the project so developers can build UI components in isolation. This setup supports component documentation, visual testing, and interactive development without needing to run the full Next.js server.
- Jest and Enzyme testing — Unit testing is configured with Jest as the test runner and Enzyme for React component testing. Enzyme's shallow rendering allows tests to focus on a component's output without rendering its children.
- Next.js foundation — The template runs on Next.js, giving access to server-side rendering, static site generation, API routes, and file-based routing.
- Tutorial companion — The included Medium article (https://caelinsutch.medium.com/how-to-setup-next-js-typescript-eslint-storybook-jest-enzyme-610451591df0) walks through every step of the setup, making it easy to understand how the pieces fit together.
Who is this for?
- React developers who want to skip the repetitive setup of tooling and start building features immediately.
- Frontend teams that need a standardized project scaffold to ensure consistent code quality, with linting and testing already in place.
- Open source contributors who prefer a documented boilerplate they can fork and customize for their own Next.js projects.
What can you do with it?
- Rapid prototyping: Start a new Next.js app with a complete development environment, including hot reloading via Next.js development server.
- Component testing: Write Jest and Enzyme unit tests for React components to verify behavior and catch regressions early.
- UI component showcase: Use Storybook to develop, document, and share UI components with your team.
