Hey, is there any way to create a non-html page with getStaticProps?
Context: I'm, trying to create a sitemap.xml but I want it generated in build time and not on the fly in the server (like in the docs: https://nextjs.org/learn/seo/crawling-and-indexing/xml-sitemaps)

I think you can ask this question in gpt-help

Just did, wasn't helpful :/

#

are you using pages or app dir?

pages

did you build a sitemap.xml.tsx in pages? that seems to be the go-to

#

Yeah but I can't get it to work statically

#

If I use getStaticProps it wraps everything with Next's html wrapper

#

then, from what I have seen, this xml nor any other non-html page should be static. so, why do you want a static sitemap with next.js?

#

Because I want the page prebuilt (for obvious performance reasons) and it can be served stale and refresh in the background
