How to create a new page
Learn how to use the Layout component to create new pages.
Create a new your-page-name.tsx
file in the pages folder and import the dependencies. In Next.js the file name represents the url slug for the page.
import { NextPage } from 'next';
import { PageLayout } from '../components/page-layout';
Create a NextPage that wraps your content in a <PageLayout>
. Start by adding a page title and a subtitle.
const YourPageName: NextPage = () => {
return (
<PageLayout>
<article>
<header>
<PageTitle>Your page title</PageTitle>
<PageSubtitle>Page subtitle</PageSubtitle>
</header>
<p>Your page content goes here.</p>
</article>
</PageLayout>
);
};
Export your the page
export default YourPageName;
Add your page to the sidebar
Navigation items and item groups are defined in side-navigation/navigation.ts. To add a new item to the sidebar we'll create a new items group. Start by defining items for the new group:
const newItems: NavItem[] = [
{ title: 'Your new page', url: '/your-new-page' },
{ title: 'Some other page', url: '/some-other-page' },
...
];
The title
property represents the navigation item text in the sidebar. url
is the name of a file saved in pages folder.
For the new group to show up in the navigation add a new item to the navigation
array:
export const navigation: Category[] = [
{ title: 'Title for the new group', items: newItems },
...
];
