Persistent Layout + Network Request

[jose-donato]

Hello.

First of all, it is never too much to thank everyone behind this amazing framework.

I have this requirement that i need to have a persistent layout between multiple pages (it is a website for a radio, the player cannot stop when changing the page).

Also, in the layout I need to request some data from the CMS (the news' categories can change overtime so i need to query them when building).

I've seen both examples provided in the repo:

1. https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-dynamic-app-layout
2. https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-app-layout

And i was thinking to do the request in getInitialProps of _app.js but that would disable Automatic Static Optimization in pages without Static Generation.

Is there any approach where without disabling automatic static optimization?

Greetings
