Introduction to Styled-Components

Styled-Components is a popular library for styling components in React applications, including Next.js. It allows you to write CSS directly within your JavaScript code, ensuring that styles are scoped to specific components. In this tutorial, we'll explore how to use Styled-Components in Next.js.


Installation and Setup

1. Start by installing Styled-Components in your Next.js project:

<pre>
npm install styled-components
</pre>

2. Create a component and use Styled-Components to style it. For example:

<pre>
// MyComponent.js
import React from 'react';
import styled from 'styled-components';
const StyledDiv = styled.div`
background-color: #f4f4f4;
padding: 10px;
`;
function MyComponent() {
return (
<StyledDiv>
<h2>Styled Component</h2>
<p>This component is styled with Styled-Components.</p>
</StyledDiv>
);
}
export default MyComponent;
</pre>

Styled-Components provides a way to define component-specific styles in a clean and maintainable manner.
