How to add Tag Input in Next.js ?

In this article, we are going to learn how we can add Tag input in NextJS. NextJS is a React-based framework. It has the power to Develop beautiful Web applications for different platforms like Windows, Linux, and mac.

Approach: To add our tag input, we are going to use the react-tag-input-component package. The react-tag-input-component package helps us to integrate the tag input in our app. So first, we will install the react-tag-input-component package and then we will add a tag input on our homepage.

Create NextJS Application: You can create a new NextJs project using the below command:

npx create-next-app gfg

Install the required package: Now we will install the react-tag-input-component package using the below command:

npm i react-tag-input-component

Project Structure: It will look like this.

Adding the Tag Input: After installing the package, we can easily add a tag input on any page in our app. For this example, we are going to add a tag input to our homepage.

Add the below content in the index.js file:

import React, { useState } from "react"; 
import { TagsInput } from "react-tag-input-component"; 

export default function TagInput(){
  const [selected, setSelected] = useState(["gfg"]);
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>NextJs Tag Input - GeeksforGeeks</h1>
      <div>
      <h1>Add Tags</h1>
      <pre>{JSON.stringify(selected)}</pre>
      <TagsInput
        value={selected}
        onChange={setSelected}
        name="tags"
        placeHolder="tags"
      />
      <em>Enter tags</em>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

Steps to run the application: Run the below command in the terminal to run the app.
