Example Vercel Next13 App Deployment using CDKTF

This is a minimal example showing how to deploy a Next 13 application on Vercel via CDK for Terraform (cdktf) and the official Vercel Terraform Provider.

Project setup

Follow these 5 easy steps in order to publish the Next13 app to your Vercel account (make sure pnpm is installed (e.g. via npm i -g pnpm) and that you have cloned this repo):

1. Create an API token in the Vercel Dashboard as described on the Vercel Docs. Use the "Full Access" scope. The token name can be anything you want - however, it's recommended to use ‘terraform’ (as mentioned here).
2. Create a .env file in the deployment/ folder and add the token from the previous step as VERCEL_API_TOKEN to it (as shown in .env.example).
3. Run pnpm install to install all dependencies
4. Run pnpm init to initialize the typescript code bindings for the vercel provider in a .gen folder.
5. Run pnpm deploy to deploy the app to Vercel.

CDKTF Configuration

You find the actual CDKTF stack under deployment/main.ts.
