How to use the src directory and absolute imports in Next.js

#NextJS#Webdev

I'm super excited that this is finally a thing so all of my source code (src, get it) can live in the src directory and I can import it using absolute imports.

Make a tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json file

Add the baseUrl option:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "./src"
  }
}

That's it 🎉

If you're a WebStorm user make sure to right click the src directory and click "Mark as resource root".
