How I Released A Next JS App to the Google Play Store (with AWS Amplify)

Jarrod Watts

Thanks mate for the reply. I even removed the image code and simply followed:

yarn create next-app --typescript

Configure Amplify and AWS

Use CI CD option to deploy to AWS via Amplify and link repository for the frontend app (ALL WORKS)

Configure next.config.js for PWA support using NextJS plugin called next-pwa Deploy again (BUILD FAILS)

Using Amplify just wanted more control rather using third party. In next.config.js, when reference to const withPWA = require(next-pwa) is removed, the issue is gone but loosing pwa support.

Amplify frustration is; it shows as 'internal error' within its logs and hence tough to identify the cause with insufficient documentation on Amplify pwa.

I even used 'next' version 10 that's as per docs is supported (limited).
