Next.js was conceived to make it easy to create universal apps. That's why fetching data on the server and the client when necessary is so easy with Next.js.

By using getStaticProps Next.js will fetch data at build time from a page, and pre-render the page to static assets.

Deploy the example using Vercel:

Execute create-next-app with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
