title: '`getInitialProps` Export Warning'
#### Why This Warning Occurred
You attempted to statically export your application via `output: 'export'` or `next export`, however, one or more of your pages uses `getInitialProps`.
Next.js discourages you to use `getInitialProps` in this scenario.
## Possible Ways to Fix It
Use `getStaticProps` instead for proper SSG support.
