# Rewrites Example

This example shows how to use [rewrites in Next.js](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next.config.js/rewrites) to map an incoming request path to a different destination path.

The index page ([`pages/index.js`](pages/index.js)) has a list of links that match the rewrites defined in [`next.config.js`](next.config.js). Run or deploy the app to see how it works!
