Static directory is deprecated

Why This Error Occurred

In versions prior to 9.0.6 the static directory was used to serve static assets in a Next.js application. This has been deprecated in favor of a public directory.

The reason we want to support a public directory instead is to not require the /static prefix for assets anymore and there is no reason to maintain both paths.

Possible Ways to Fix It

You can move your static directory inside of the public directory and all URLs will remain the same as they were before.

Before

static/
  my-image.jpg
pages/
  index.js
components/
  my-image.js

After

public/
  static/
    my-image.jpg
pages/
  index.js
components/
  my-image.js
