Next.js how to show something in development and hide in production
I wanted to display some information on the website only if it was in development, on my local machine, and not in the deployed website.
Here’s how I did it:
const isDev = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
{isDev && (
<p>local only</p>
)}
