 ## Caveats
 
 One caveat with this project: Because the app must be able to run purely client-side and use [Next.js's Export command](https://nextjs.org/docs/advanced-features/static-html-export), that means no Server Side Rendering in this code base. There is likely a way to SSR and a fully static Next.js app in tandem but it requires [a Babel plugin](https://github.com/erzr/next-babel-conditional-ssg-ssr) or would involve a more elaborate monorepo setup with code sharing that is out of scope for this project.
