Django x Next.js Boilerplate

This is a boilerplate for a Django x Next.js project. It includes a Django backend and a Next.js frontend.

This boilerplate contains two projects in one repo:

• backend: A Django project using Django Ninja for the API and JWT Auth
• frontend: A Next.js project using Shadcn UI and HTTP-only cookies for JWT Auth

For long term maintenance, it is recommended to split these projects into dedicated repos. They exist together in this repo for convenience.

Backend: Django x Django Ninja

Includes:

• Django Ninja API
• JWT Auth through django-ninja-jwt
• Env variable loading through python-decouple

Frontend: Next.js

Includes:

• Next.js
• Tailwind CSS
• TypeScript
• Shadcn UI
• HTTP-only cookies for JWT Auth
• Proxied API calls to backend with automatic Auth tokens
