  1. Following your post to the letter and I’m getting an error when running dev after copy/pasting the index.js file, says I’m missing @emotion/styled. Should I install this or am I doing something wrong?

    1. Hey David, thank your for your comment! Did you run `npm install` on the root level of the project before trying to run `npm run dev`?

  2. Hi Kevin, thanks for this. Do you have an example that doesn’t use getInitialProps, because it is now deprecated? The latest version of Next recommends getStaticProps or getServerSideProps instead, but neither are supported for use in _document.js

  3. Thanks Kevin for providing this.

    Parts of it did not work with the current version of NextJs/MUI, but I was able to find ways to make it work. I would be glad to give you the tweaked code, if you want to update this great tutorial.
