This guide covers the configuration of your development environment to work effectively with ProStack.

​
Code Editor Setup

We recommend using Visual Studio Code with the following extensions for the best development experience:
  • ESLint: JavaScript linting
  • Prettier: Code formatting
  • Tailwind CSS IntelliSense: Auto-completion for Tailwind CSS classes
  • Prisma: Syntax highlighting and formatting for Prisma schema

​
VS Code Configuration

ProStack includes recommended VS Code settings to maintain consistency across your team. These settings are stored in .vscode/settings.json: 
{
    "cSpell.words": [
        "customsearch"
    ]
}
You can extend these settings based on your team’s preferences.

​
Git Configuration

ProStack includes a .gitignore file configured for Next.js projects: 
# See https://help.github.com/articles/ignoring-files/ for more about ignoring files.

# dependencies
/node_modules
/.pnp
.pnp.js
.yarn/install-state.gz

# testing
/coverage

# next.js
/.next/
/.idea/
/out/

# production
/build

# misc
.DS_Store
*.pem

# debug
npm-debug.log*
yarn-debug.log*
yarn-error.log*

# local env files
.env*.local

# vercel

# typescript
*.tsbuildinfo

.env

​
Code Formatting

ProStack uses Prettier for code formatting. The configuration is defined in .prettierrc: 
{
  "printWidth": 100,
  "tabWidth": 4,
  "trailingComma": "all",
  "singleQuote": false,
  "jsxBracketSameLine": false,
  "bracketSpacing": true,
  "useTabs": false,
  "semi": true
}
To format your code manually, you can run: 
bun run format

​
TypeScript Configuration

ProStack is configured with TypeScript for type safety. The TypeScript configuration can be found in tsconfig.json.

​
Environment Variables

ProStack uses environment variables for configuration. For a complete list of required and optional environment variables, see the Environment Variables page.

​
Pre-commit Hooks

ProStack can be configured with pre-commit hooks using Husky to ensure code quality before committing changes. This includes running linters, formatters, and tests.
