Disable TypeScript from checking types validity when building for production

I am using using Next.js with TypeScript for a small project. I am wondering if it's possible to disable types validity checks when I run npm run build considering type checking happened during npm run dev. Plus this will help to build production build without TypeScript package which is not used in production.

Solution

  • Open next.config.js and enable the ignoreBuildErrors option in the typescript config:

    module.exports = {
  typescript: {
    // !! WARN !!
    // Dangerously allow production builds to successfully complete even if
    // your project has type errors.
    // !! WARN !!
    ignoreBuildErrors: true,
  },
}
