The idea behind the example

This example shows the most basic idea behind Next. We have 2 pages: pages/index.js and pages/about.js. The former responds to / requests and the latter to /about. Using next/link you can add hyperlinks between them with universal routing capabilities. The day directory shows that you can have subdirectories.
