## The idea behind the example
This example demostrate how you can use [pkg](https://github.com/zeit/pkg) to create a binary version of a Next.js application.
To do it we need to create at least a super simple custom server that allow us to run `node server.js` instead of `next` or `next start`. We also need to create a `index.js` that works as the entry point for **pkg**, in that file we force to set NODE_ENV as production.
