Vercel Web Analytics Implementation

Summary

Successfully implemented Vercel Web Analytics in the personal webpage project using the @vercel/analytics React package.

Changes Made

1. Added Dependencies

  • Modified: package.json
    • Added @vercel/analytics version ^1.6.1 to dependencies

2. Integrated Analytics Component

  • Modified: src/App.jsx
    • Added import: import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/react'
    • Added <Analytics /> component at the end of the main component tree (inside the root div.homepage-container)

3. Code Quality Improvements

While implementing the analytics, I also fixed pre-existing linting errors:

  • Removed unused useState import from React
  • Removed unused scene and camera variables from the THREE.js setup in the useEffect hook

Implementation Details

The Analytics component was placed at the end of the main component tree, which follows React best practices. This ensures:

  • The analytics script loads without blocking the main content
  • All page views and interactions are tracked properly
  • The component integrates seamlessly with React's lifecycle

Testing Performed

  1. Build Test: Verified that npm run build completes successfully
  2. Linter: Confirmed npm run lint passes with no errors
  3. Dependencies: Installed @vercel/analytics and verified package-lock.json was updated correctly

Next Steps

To complete the Vercel Web Analytics setup:

  1. Enable Web Analytics on Vercel Dashboard:

    • Go to your project on the Vercel dashboard
    • Click the "Analytics" tab
    • Click "Enable" to activate Web Analytics
    • This will add routes scoped at /_vercel/insights/* after the next deployment
  2. Deploy to Vercel:

    vercel deploy

    Or push to your connected Git repository for automatic deployment

  3. Verify Analytics is Working:

    • After deployment, visit your site
    • Open browser DevTools → Network tab
    • Look for a Fetch/XHR request to /_vercel/insights/view
    • If you see this request, analytics is working correctly
  4. View Data:

    • Go to your Vercel dashboard
    • Select your project
    • Click the "Analytics" tab to view visitor data

Framework Information

This project uses:

  • Framework: Vite + React
  • Package Manager: npm
  • Analytics Package: @vercel/analytics/react (for React integration with route support)

The implementation follows the official Vercel Web Analytics documentation for React applications.
