How do I implement Static Site Generation in Next.js?

To implement Static Site Generation (SSG) in Next.js, you can use the getStaticProps function in your page component.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

export async function getStaticProps() {
  const data = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
  const jsonData = await data.json();
  return { props: { jsonData } };
}

const Page = ({ jsonData }) => {
  return <div>{JSON.stringify(jsonData)}</div>;
};

export default Page;

What are the benefits of using SSG?

SSG improves performance by serving pre-rendered pages, enhances SEO, and reduces server load.

Are there any limitations I should be aware of?

Yes, SSG is not suitable for dynamic content that changes frequently, as it requires a rebuild to update.
