When prerendering why are there still network requests? | Nuxt | Page 1

I am prerendering a bunch of pages:

nitro: {
    prerender: {
      crawlLinks: true,
      routes: ["/"],
      ignore: ["/tak", "/konfiguration", "/checkout"],
    },
  }

Why are my useFetch calls still running? Shouldn't the site be statically generated?

because prerendering is not client-side only rendering. A prerender still runs the page like in ssr to render the html.

I am not looking to have client side rendering. I am looking to have static generated pages. I've tried this as well with same result. @primal creek

I'm wondering the same thing. What does static mean in routeRules if useFetch still runs? I'm trying to decrease api calls.

If you want to remove API calls, you need to use pre-rendering (nuxi generate) or opt into experimental payload extraction (experimental.payloadExtraction or so)

#

Static Is "like pre-rendering" but "on-demand"
