Creating and Managing Active Links
In web development, a common practice is highlighting active links based on the current page.
In Next.js, we can achieve this using the usePathname()
hook. This hook checks the current path in the app, allowing us to implement dynamic highlighting for the corresponding page with the clsx
library.
Back to the Project
To utilize usePathname()
hook, convert nav-links.tsx
into a Client Component. Begin by adding "use client"
directive at the top of the file.
Now, we can use the usePathname
hook and use it.
Lastly, employ the clsx
library to apply styles conditionally. Set the condition such that if the pathname
is equal to link.href
, change the background color to bg-neutral-600
.
