Use with Next.js - Flowbite React
Learn how to install Flowbite React for your Next.js project and start developing with the most popular React-based framework built by Vercel
This guide provides three ways to integrate Flowbite React with Next.js:
- Quick Start: Create a new project with everything pre-configured
 - Add to Existing Project: Add Flowbite React to an existing Next.js project
 - Manual Setup: Set up everything from scratch manually
 
Quick Start (Recommended)
Quick Start#
The fastest way to get started is using our project creation CLI, which sets up a new Next.js project with Flowbite React, Tailwind CSS, and all necessary configurations:
npx create-flowbite-react@latest -t nextjs
This will:
- Create a new Next.js project
 - Install and configure Tailwind CSS
 - Set up Flowbite React with all required dependencies
 - Configure dark mode support
 - Set up example components
 
Add to Existing Project
Add to Existing Project#
If you already have a Next.js project and want to add Flowbite React, you can use our initialization CLI:
npx flowbite-react@latest init
This will automatically:
- Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
 - Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
 - Set up necessary configurations
 
Manual Setup
Manual Setup#
If you prefer to set everything up manually or need more control over the configuration, follow these steps:
1. Create Project#
Create a new Next.js project:
When prompted:
- Would you like to use Tailwind CSS? » Yes
 
npx create-next-app@latest
2. Install Flowbite React#
Install Flowbite React:
npx flowbite-react@latest init
This will:
- Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
 - Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
 - Configure Vite to include Flowbite React plugin
 
3. Configure Dark Mode (Optional)#
To avoid page flicker in dark mode before hydration, add the ThemeModeScript to your root layout:
For App Router:
// app/layout.tsx
import { ThemeModeScript } from "flowbite-react";
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
  return (
    <html suppressHydrationWarning>
      <head>
        <ThemeModeScript />
      </head>
      <body>{children}</body>
    </html>
  );
}
For Pages Router:
// pages/_document.tsx
import { ThemeModeScript } from "flowbite-react";
export default function Document() {
  return (
    <Html suppressHydrationWarning>
      <Head>
        <ThemeModeScript />
      </Head>
      <body>
        <Main />
        <NextScript />
      </body>
    </Html>
  );
}
Try it out#
Now that you have successfully installed Flowbite React you can start using the components from the library:
// app/page.tsx
import { Button } from "flowbite-react";
export default function Page() {
  return <Button>Click me</Button>;
}
