Background

I'm using SWR in my layout and I would like to call notFound() directly when a called resource is not found.

Proposal

notFound() should works from layout too.

[imclint21]

From the layout its only give an error like this:

Everybody dead here? :)

Their is a notFound method, it can be used with
import { notFound } from 'next/navigation';

Now it depends on what your use-case is and how you want to handle it.

Yes I especially speak about this one, but it does not seems works from outside a page, it's just trigger an error.

Is it possible to do it like this, but it will produce a call of page.tsx anyway.
So 2x API request for example 🤦

Personally I have a ApiWrapper that contains a SWRConfig, so I would like handle error 404 mistake and trigger notFound from here, but not from any pages.
