The idea behind the example

The strategy here is to transpile the stylesheet file to a css-in-js file so that it can be loaded and hot reloaded both on the server and the client. For this purpose i created a babel loader plugin called babel-loader-wrap-in-js

This project shows how you can set it up. Have a look at

• .babelrc
• next.config.js
• pages/style.scss
• pages/index.js
