NextStep: Lightweight Onboarding Wizard for Next.js πŸš€

If you're using Next.js and TailwindCSS, I’ve got something that will take your user onboarding to the next level! 🌟

Meet NextStep β€” a powerful yet lightweight onboarding wizard that makes guiding your users through your app easy and interactive.

🎯 Key Use Cases:

  • Onboard new users after signup with step-by-step guidance
  • Convert help docs into interactive tours instead of plain text πŸ“˜
  • Handle errors by showing exactly what to fix, with custom tours instead of boring toasters
  • Trigger custom tours after specific events to keep users on track πŸ’‘

And guess what? You can even span a tour across multiple routes and decide whether to allow users to interact with the UI or block it completely! πŸ›‘

πŸ’Ό Some use cases:

  • Interactive onboarding: Let users learn your app at their pace with tooltips and guided steps
  • Custom error handling: Show users how to resolve errors right within your app
  • Tutorials & demos: Walk new users through key features without overwhelming them

The possibilities are limitless, and setting it up is a breeze! πŸ› οΈ

Check out the demo or dive right into the documentation to see how easy it is to get started:
