Next.js Full Stack

Next.js Full Stack

A batteries-included Docker Compose environment for full-stack Next.js development. App server, database, cache, ORM, and a database GUI wired together and ready to run. No local Node, Postgres, or Redis installation needed.

What's Included

• Next.js 16 — App Router with React Server Components, pre-configured with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS
• PostgreSQL 16 — Primary database with a named persistent volume and health check
• Redis 7 — Ready for caching, sessions, and rate limiting via ioredis
• Prisma ORM — Schema file included, migrations run automatically on first boot
• Adminer — Lightweight Postgres GUI at port 8080; inspect tables, run queries, browse data

Developer Experience

• Source directory bind-mounted — Next.js Fast Refresh works natively inside the container
• Pre-configured .env with DATABASE_URL, REDIS_URL, and NEXTAUTH_SECRET documented
• Prisma Client auto-generated on container start
• Health checks on Postgres and Redis — app waits until both are accepting connections
• Single docker compose up starts the entire stack
• Run migrations: docker compose exec app npx prisma migrate dev

What You Get

• docker-compose.yml — fully configured multi-service stack
• Dockerfile — Node 22 Alpine with hot-reload dev server
• prisma/schema.prisma — starter schema with a User model
• entrypoint.sh — generates Prisma Client and runs migrations on boot
