Next.js Documentation: https://nextjs.org/docs/app/getting-started/installation
In this first part of the Website from Scratch frontend development series, we’ll create a fully responsive frontend using Next.js and Tailwind CSS. This video focuses on building your local development environment — setting up a new Next.js project, integrating Tailwind for styling, and running your site locally.

By the end, you’ll have a modern, professional-looking web app running on your own machine — the foundation for what we’ll host and automate in the next two videos.

✅ You’ll see:

How to create a new Next.js app using create-next-app

How to configureTailwind CSS for clean, responsive design

How to run and preview your app locally

A walkthrough of the project structure and key files

Tips for building maintainable frontends from scratch

💡 You’ll learn:

The basics of Next.js and how it differs from React

Why Tailwind CSS is so powerful for rapid UI development
