I just grokked this very recently when I was reading up on Gatsby and the fact that they use GraphQL. I was confused for a bit because Gatsby is SSG, until I realized they merely use GraphQL as a generic way to query any JSON data you might have laying around, similarly to how getStaticProps() is employed in NextJS
