For static deployment without server-side features:

1. Configure Next.js for static export (in app/next.config.js):

   /** @type {import('next').NextConfig} */
   const nextConfig = {
     output: 'export',
     trailingSlash: true,
     images: {
       unoptimized: true
     }
   }
   module.exports = nextConfig

2. Build and export:

   cd app
   npm run build

3. Deploy the out folder to GitHub Pages

1. Go to github.com and sign in
2. Click the "+" icon in the top right corner
3. Select "New repository"
4. Choose a repository name (e.g., ai-x-network)
5. Add a description: "AI X Network - Modern Next.js website"
6. Choose visibility:
   • Public: Anyone can see this repository
   • Private: Only you and collaborators can see it
7. Don't initialize with README, .gitignore, or license (we already have these)
8. Click "Create repository"

After creating the repository, run these commands in your project root:

# Add the GitHub repository as remote origin
git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_REPOSITORY_NAME.git

# Push your code to GitHub
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main

Replace YOUR_USERNAME and YOUR_REPOSITORY_NAME with your actual GitHub username and repository name.

• Go to your GitHub repository page
• You should see all your project files
• Check that the .env file is NOT uploaded (it should be in .gitignore)

• Never commit .env files to version control
• Always use environment variables for sensitive data
• Generate strong secrets for production
• Use HTTPS in production
• Keep dependencies updated regularly

After deployment, test these features:

1. Homepage loads correctly
2. Navigation works on all pages
3. Contact forms submit (check database)
4. Email notifications work (if configured)
5. Authentication flows work properly
6. Responsive design on mobile devices
