In this section, we're going to build up
on the application we built in the previous section,
and we're going to add data fetching to it,
which means we're no longer going to define the dummy news
simply in our code and hard code them in our code,
but instead, we're going to load them
from a different data source.
And therefore, in this section you will learn
how you can fetch data and where you can fetch data
in NextJS applications.
You will learn how to fetch data from external APIs.
And you will also learn how to directly load data
from other sources like databases or files.
And therefore, let's not waste any time.
Let's dive right in.
