import path from 'path'

function App({ name, version }) {
  const router = useRouter()
  
  useRemoteRefresh({
    shouldRefresh: (path) => path.includes(router.query.slug),
  })
  
  return (
    <div>
      Package: {name} Version: {version}
    </div>
  )
}

export function getStaticProps() {

    props: path.resolve(process.cwd(), './package.json', 'utf-8'),
