Does anyone know if you can use react-bootstrap
with Next.js? I am using the latest versions of both, I can provide code at this point, but right now my app is not throwing any errors, it is just not registering any of my react-bootstrap
components. Maybe there is some trick that I have not been able to find on the internet? I can provide code or file structure if that helps. Thanks in advance!
const withCSS = require('@zeit/next-css')
module.exports = withCSS({
/* my next config */
})
import Badge from 'react-bootstrap/Badge';
import "../public/css/bootstrap.css";
const Index = () => (
<div>
<p className='display-4'>Hello</p>
<Badge>Heading</Badge>
</div>
)
export default Index;

Yes, it is possible to use react-bootstrap in a nextjs application.
One of the problems you might encounter will be in the rendering of your application if javascript is disabled in the user's browser and you use react-bootstrap components to build your layout (see example below).
Nextjs allows you to display SSG/SSR pages, users without javascript can see your application but the layout might be messy.
But if you still want to go with it:
npm i react-bootstrap bootstrap
Import bootstrap styles in your _app.js:
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
You can then use your react-bootstrap components as you would do in reactjs:
import {Container, Row, Col} from 'react-bootstrap';
const Layout = () => (
<>
<Container fluid>
<Row>
<Col>
<p>Yay, it's fluid!</p>
</Col>
</Row>
</Container>
</>
);
export default Layout;
