Next.js Beginner

Learn Next.js the right way

Awesome framework: I've been building modern React applications and websites for years. My go-to framework for that is Next.js. It's pretty awesome. Even this site is built with Next.js. You can build pages that are CSR, SSR, SSG, ISR. You must be thinking OMG.WTF?BBQ! — I get that. Building hybrid apps is pretty damn hard.
Complex to understand: Developers often struggle to understand when to use Client Side Rendering or Server Side Rendering, and what about Static Site Generation to build Jamstack apps. — And btw what the heck is Incremental Static Regeneration?!
…but I can help: You see if not understood well; the same excellent Next.js framework can be super confusing. I'm writing a book, creating an app, and recording a beginner-friendly video course to help you start building production Next.js apps without wasting hundreds of hours. Complete step-by-step guide. — Want to know more? Sign up ↓

Today for #devAdvent: the very hardworking @MrAhmadAwais! Awais is a WordPress Core member and TEDx speaker and he recently created a course to help people become VS Code Power Users. If you're using VSCode as your editor, VSCode.pro is a fun/cool resource!

Open Source work: "It's very impressive". — Won Automattic Design Award Trophy. The create-guten-block project is an awesome awesome contribution to the community — at AWP Gutenberg series.

Matt MullenwegMatt MullenwegCo-Founder of WordPress

I also just made the decision to move away from PHPStorm to VSCode. I mean, just one year in license fees pays for the VSCode.pro master package and I'll learn from one of the best Just by going through the UI improvements videos, I can already see how the course will help me become #VSCODEpro

"OMG awesome. How do you find those class names?" — Said in response to a VSCode tip shared by Awais on Twitter.

It’s a 5 hour course that teaches you a huge amount of knowledge and after going through it myself, I can state that even as a fairly advanced user of VS Code, Awais taught me some neat tricks that I immediately am integrating into my workflow now.

Benjamin LannonBenjamin LannonVSCode Extensions Developer in NY

I've been using VSCode for a few months and I'm not a power user at all. Thanks to @MrAhmadAwais for creating an amazing course to help me bridge that gap in a short time. I highly recommend his course if you're looking to level up your VSCode game.

Haris ZulfiqarHaris ZulfiqarFounder Avada | Engineer at WDS

If you're looking to expand your VSCode knowledge, I have no doubt this course will be extremely useful. @MrAhmadAwais does great work.

Jeremy EnglertJeremy EnglertCore Contributor ZURB Foundation

Just grabbed @MrAhmadAwais's #VSCODEpro course masterclass. If you use any code editor, make the move. Support Awais :) he's a top guy — does great work. → VSCcode.pro

Mike StottMike StottCore Contributor ZURB Foundation

I love this theme! 🦄 Themes with more unique colors like purple are relatively rare, so it's great to see purple represented here. 😃 It's a fun theme, and it's easy to read! 🙌

Ali SpittelAli SpittelTech Director WomenWhoCode

Kudos to the teacher @MrAhmadAwais for making the #VSCODEpro learning a breeze. I am on the 14th chapter and this is getting as exciting as binge learning. Awais, your hard work is making a student's life easy. You deserve great respect

Raghu VamsiRaghu VamsiSCRUM Master + Front End Dev

I always find him to be an excellent communicator, highly skilled, considerate, and extremely generous. He's a pleasure to collaborate with and he's produced some very impressive public and FREE #OpenSource work for developers to learn and benefit from. In my book, those are some of the best characteristics to have in a person. Awais is highly recommended.

Matt CromwellMatt CromwellPartner/Head Community Impress.org

I've never known someone to create such useful things on a regular basis. Truly impressive sir. I mean it. You just pump stuff out. It's incredible.

Lee PetersonLee PetersonCreative Lead at Rusty Dog Design

I've read over Awais's tutorial a few times and implemented most of it. He's the bee's knees for this kind of stuff. — In ref to the WordPress & Gulp implementation via WPGulp.

Alex ColemanAlex ColemanWeb Designer at LeftSideDesign

This is a gorgeous, high contrast theme that stands out without getting in the way. Especially great for doing developer talks and screencasts and maintained by a supremely dedicated expert in all the VSCode pro tips. The documentation itself is a thing of beauty, too. 5 Stars!

Shawn Swyx WangShawn Swyx WangDev Experience @Netlify | Reactjs

Yes, Awais writes great WordPress tutorials and makes great looking themes and websites, but that's not the only reason I endorse Awais. He is a great community member, he is a core contributor to WordPress and always helpful to other WordPress users. Also, he is a really nice guy, which is important.

Josh PollockJosh PollockLead Dev & Founder CalderaWP

Ahmad has written tutorials for me to publish at Tuts+ on a number of occasions, and I always appreciate his level of expertise both in the subject matter…, and in helping to educate others. I would hire Awais again for… training or consultancy in a heartbeat.

Japheth ThomsonJapheth ThomsonDirector of Hosting at Human Made

I know Awais from his contributions to world wide web. His expertise in web & software technologies and his contributions to various open-source projects make it stand out of the crowd. I highly recommend Awais.

I switch syntax themes so often, but I haven't felt the need to switch since using 🦄 Shades of Purple for the past 6 months, it's my new default 😃 - keep up the good work man!

Adam HollisterAdam HollisterLead Developer at The British & Irish Modern Music Institute

Amazing job with balancing out the colors to ensure it's not overloading the eyes. The comments, and markdown syntax semi-hidden state styling is also a good idea! If it's not critical to always see this information then it makes sense to reduce it's visibility. Nice job mate.

B ...B ...SOP Review

I jumped ship from Cobalt 2 by Wes to 🦄 Shades of Purple theme by Ahmad Awais and I'm not looking back, beautiful shades of purple lighten up my code in a way that no other theme can, great job Awais!

IgnacioaalIgnacioaalRails Hacker

At go6.media we always use Shades of Purple for all our PHP/HTML/JS/CSS and other languages. It's so beautiful and easy to read, we also added some slight tweaks to make it even better and we could not be happier that we found it. Thank you!

WayneWayneDevs at Go6 Media

Awais takes his extension seriously and fixed a bug for me overnight. A fantastic theme that is both attractive but more importantly, effective in bring your attention to the import parts of your code.

Mark PorterMark PorterDev at PorterPeople

I started loving the 🦄 Shades of Purple theme from its name ;) After seeing images of the themes, I saw there was more and to get to know about the 'more', an installation will have to occur which did occur...After installation, I got to find out that the theme is super duper awesome than I thought… Welldone Ahmad Awais

Uche JudeUche JudeSoftware Developer Andela

Just installed 🦄 Shades of Purple and absolutely love it! Thank you for creating it! I love these colors! I also switched from Cobalt2. And just beginning a new job as a React.js dev, with it :-)

Alexandra SpalatoAlexandra SpalatoJavascript & WordPress Developer

I started using SOP during the better release and ever since it has being a perfect choice for me. Love to see my IDE always with the shades of purple splash. It improved my overall workflow. Thanks @AhamadAwais for such work.

Have been using 🦄 Shades of Purple theme for the last couple of weeks and in love with it. Its fun writing code with those shades of purple <3
