Nextjs Tips Series: Absolute import and alias

NextJs has better support for absolute imports and aliases. It is now possible to set a baseUrl in jsconfig.json. This file also has support for paths now.

// tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@/ui/*": ["components/*"]
    }
  }
}
// Imports 'components/ui/input'
import Input from '@/ui/input'

Thank you :)
