Build a Job Board

Learn how to launch a production-ready job board in minutes using our Next.js starter template.

Overview

The CleanJobData Next.js Starter is a full-featured job board template built with Next.js 16, Tailwind CSS v4, and our Jobs API. It includes everything you need to get started: filters, search, SEO optimizations, and a responsive UI.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Get your API Key

Guided Setup

Security First

Always keep your API key secret. In the Next.js starter, the key is used in Server Components or API routes, so it is never exposed to the client.

Deploy the Template

The fastest way to get started is using the one-click deploy buttons for Vercel or Netlify. This will clone the repository to your own GitHub account and start a new deployment.

Deploy to Vercel Deploy to Netlify

Configure Environment Variables

During deployment (or in your local .env.local file), set the following variables:

CLEANJOBDATA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
CLEANJOBDATA_API_URL=https://api.cleanjobdata.com
NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_NAME="My Job Board"
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL=https://your-domain.com

Customize & Launch

Once deployed, you can customize the branding by replacing the logo in public/logo.svg and updating the theme in app/globals.css.

Replace public/logo.svg with your brand logo.
Update app/icon.svg for your favicon.
Modify app/layout.tsx metadata for better SEO.

Next Steps

Now that your job board is live, you can explore our API documentation to add more features like geographic suggestions or custom filtering logic.
