Next.js Meta Data


Hello folks! welcome back to a new section of our tutorial on Next.js. In this tutorial, we will be discussing about Next.js Meta Data.

In Next.js, we can serve, modify the header section of each react page very easily with the help of <Head> react component which is built-in.

Let us update the nextjs project which was used in Next.js Pages tutorial.

Update index.js using the following content -

import Link from 'next/link'
import Head from 'next/head'

function HomePage() {
   return (
      <>
         <Head>
            <title>Welcome to Next.js!</title>
         </Head>
         <div>Welcome to Next.js!</div>
         <Link href="/posts/first"><a>First Post</a></Link>
         <br/>
         <img src="/logo.jpeg" alt="WebDesignTutorialz Logo" />
      </>	    
   )
}

export default HomePage

Update first.js with the following content -

import Link from 'next/link'
import Head from 'next/head'

export default function FirstPost() {
   return (
      <>
      <Head>
         <title>My First Post</title>
      </Head>
      <h1>My First Post</h1>
      <h2>
         <Link href="/">
            <a>Home</a>
         </Link>
      </h2>
      </>	  
   )
}

Here we've added a reference to logo.jpeg in index.js file.
