Overview

This project is an implementation of an idea to allow data to be shared between routes in NextJS SSG. It is a Next.js project that fetches data from Contentful at build time using Static Site Generation (SSG). The purpose of this solution is to separate the data fetching from Contentful and Next's SSG, allowing the content to be fetched upfront, cached on the file system, and reused for subsequent calls from getStaticPaths or getStaticProps.

Features

Shared data between routes: Allows data to be shared between routes in NextJS SSG.
Efficient data fetching: Fetches data from Contentful at build time, reducing the need for multiple API calls.
File system caching: Caches the fetched data on the file system for subsequent reuse.

Summary

This project provides a solution to the problem of data sharing between routes in NextJS SSG. By fetching data from Contentful at build time and caching it on the file system, it reduces the need for multiple API calls and improves the efficiency of data fetching. With the ability to separate the data fetching process from Next's SSG, it enables developers to fetch content upfront, cache it, and reuse it for subsequent calls, resulting in improved performance and a better user experience.
