Migration to Next.js

This project now contains a Next.js application alongside the existing Jekyll site.

Steps Performed

  1. Created nextjs/ with a basic Next.js configuration using the MDX plugin.
  2. Added utilities in lib/posts.js to load markdown posts from the Jekyll _posts directory.
  3. Recreated index.md and about.md as React pages.
  4. Created dynamic post pages using next-mdx-remote.
  5. Updated README.md with build and deployment instructions.

Building

This environment cannot install npm packages, so the nextjs project uses a stub build script. Run:

cd nextjs
npm run build

When network access is available, run npm install and update the scripts to use the real Next.js CLI.

Deployment

After building, start the server with npm start or deploy the .next output using any Node.js hosting provider.
