+
+# Setting up a Next.js storefront for your Medusa project
+
+> Medusa is a headless open source commerce platform giving engineers the foundation for building unique and scaleable digital commerce projects through our API-first engine.
+> Being headless, our starters serve as a good foundation for you to get coupled with a frontend in a matter of minutes.
+
+This article assumes you already have the Medusa project created and ready to be linked to your Next.js starter.
+
+## Getting started
+
+In order to get started let's open the terminal and use the following command to create an instance of your storefront:
+
+```zsh
+    npx create-next-app -e https://github.com/medusajs/nextjs-starter-medusa my-medusa-storefront
+```
+
+Now we have a storefront codebase that is ready to be used with our Medusa server.
+
+Next, we have to complete two steps to make our new shiny storefront to speak with our server: **link storefront to a server** and **update the `STORE_CORS` variable**.
+
+Let's jump to these two.
+
+## Link storefront to a server
+
+For this part, we should navigate to a `client.js` file which you can find in the utils folder.
+
+We don't need to do much in here, but to make sure that our storefront is pointing to the port, where the server is running
+
+```js
+import Medusa from "@medusajs/medusa-js"
+const BACKEND_URL = process.env.GATSBY_STORE_URL || "http://localhost:9000" // <--- That is the line we are looking for
+export const createClient = () => new Medusa({ baseUrl: BACKEND_URL })
+```
+
+By default the Medusa server is running at port 9000, so if you didn't change that we are good to go to our next step.
+
+## Update the `STORE_CORS` variable
+
+Here let's navigate to your Medusa server and open `medusa-config.js`
+
+Let's locate the `STORE_CORS` variable and make sure it's the right port (which is 3000 by default for Next.js projects)
+
+```js
+/*
+ * CORS to avoid issues when consuming Medusa from a client.
+ * Should be pointing to the port where the storefront is running.
+ */
+const STORE_CORS = process.env.STORE_CORS || "http://localhost:3000"
+```
+
+Now we have a storefront that interacts with our Medusa server and with that we have a sweet and complete e-commerce setup with a Next.js storefront.
