Is it possible to create a NextJS project with ChakraUI ?
I want to create a NextJS refine panel using ChakraUI, is this possible? Because I can only find the Vite project for ChakraUI and the presented UI Frameworks are Ant, Material and Headless when creating a new project

Hi @Max V. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Yes, it is possible to create a Next.js project with Chakra UI using Refine. Refine provides an app scaffolding tool that allows you to choose the platform you want to use (Vite, Next.js, or Remix), the UI library of your choice (Ant Design, Material UI, Chakra UI, Mantine, or none), and other options like data provider and authentication provider source (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/development).
To create a new project, you can use the command-line interface by running the following command in your terminal:
After running the command, you will be prompted to select the options you want to use for your project. Here, you can select Next.js as your platform and Chakra UI as your UI library.
If you prefer a visual interface, you can use the browser-based scaffolding tool by visiting refine.dev (https://refine.dev/?playground=true) and selecting the options you want to use for your project. After you are done with the options, you can click on the Create Project button to download your project.
Once the project is created, you can install the necessary dependencies using
npm install
and start the development server using npm run dev
source (https://refine.dev/blog/next-ui-react-admin-panel#how-to-create-a-refine-application).

I apologize for the confusion. As of the current version of Refine, the Chakra UI option is not available directly from the
create-refine-app
command. However, you can manually integrate Chakra UI into your Refine project.
Here are the steps to integrate Chakra UI with Refine:
1. First, create a new Refine project with Next.js:
2. Then, navigate to your project directory:
3. Install the necessary packages for Chakra UI:
4. Wrap your app with the <ChakraProvider />
to make sure you have the theme available for your app. Then use the layout components to wrap them around your routes. Here is an example:
You can refer to the Refine Chakra UI documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/chakra-ui/introduction/) for more details on how to use Refine's Chakra UI integration.
