## Demo
You can view a working demo of the Medusa provider for Next.js Commerce at https://medusa-provider.vercel.app/
## Quickstart
You need a [Medusa](https://medusa-commerce.com/) instance, either in the cloud or self-hosted.
Clone this repo and install dependencies using `yarn` or `npm install`
Copy the `.env.template` file in this directory to `.env.local` in the main directory (which will be ignored by Git):
```bash
mv framework/medusa/.env.template .env.local
```
Then, set the environment following variables in your `.env.local`.
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_STORE_URL` must point to the URL where your Medusa instance is running.
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_IMAGE_HOST` must point to your image hosting service.
```
COMMERCE_PROVIDER=medusa
NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_STORE_URL=https://medusa-demo.store
NEXT_PUBLIC_MEDUSA_IMG_HOST=medusa-public-images.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
```
## Notes
- The entire customer flow is carried out using the [Storefront API](https://docs.medusa-commerce.com/api/store). This means that there is no existing, pre-built checkout flow. The checkout flow must be built using the `Storefront API`, for an example of how to do this feel free to have a look at our [Next.js](https://github.com/medusajs/gatsby-starter-medusa) starter project.
- `Medusa` does not come with any page/blog building feature. This can be implemented using `Medusa` in conjunction with a CMS such as `Contentful`. For inspiration on how to do this check out our [Contentful starter](https://github.com/medusajs/medusa-starter-contentful)
