Server-Side Requests by wrapping Next.JS in an Express server

Intent

For my current project at work I need to ensure that all requests come from the server side. I posted a question on Stack Overflow that states this same requirement.

This example shows how I solved the problem and got all requests to occur server-side.

The starting point for this example was Zeit's custom-server-express Next.JS example

To Run

Install dependencies:

yarn

Run app:

yarn dev

Visit page at localhost:3000 and click around. Take a look at the comments in the code, as well as your browser and terminal logs.
