title: devIndicators
description: Configuration options for the on-screen indicator that gives context about the current route you're viewing during development.
---
`devIndicators` allows you to configure the on-screen indicator that gives context about the current route you're viewing during development.
```ts filename="Types"
devIndicators: false | {
position?: 'bottom-right'
| 'bottom-left'
| 'top-right'
| 'top-left', // defaults to 'bottom-left',
},
```
Setting `devIndicators` to `false` will hide the indicator, however Next.js will continue to surface any build or runtime errors that were encountered.
## Troubleshooting
### Indicator not marking a route as static
If you expect a route to be static and the indicator has marked it as dynamic, it's likely the route has opted out of static rendering.
You can confirm if a route is [static](/docs/app/getting-started/partial-prerendering#static-rendering) or [dynamic](/docs/app/getting-started/partial-prerendering#dynamic-rendering) by building your application using `next build --debug`, and checking the output in your terminal. Static (or prerendered) routes will display a `○` symbol, whereas dynamic routes will display a `ƒ` symbol. For example:
```bash filename="Build Output"
Route (app) Size First Load JS
┌ ○ /_not-found 0 B 0 kB
└ ƒ /products/[id] 0 B 0 kB
○ (Static) prerendered as static content
ƒ (Dynamic) server-rendered on demand
```

There are two reasons a route might opt out of static rendering:
- The presence of [Dynamic APIs](/docs/app/getting-started/partial-prerendering#dynamic-rendering) which rely on runtime information.
- An [uncached data request](/docs/app/getting-started/fetching-data), like a call to an ORM or database driver.
Check your route for any of these conditions, and if you are not able to statically render the route, then consider using [`loading.js`](/docs/app/api-reference/file-conventions/loading) or [`<Suspense />`](https://react.dev/reference/react/Suspense) to leverage [streaming](/docs/app/getting-started/linking-and-navigating#streaming).

When exporting [`getServerSideProps`](/docs/pages/building-your-application/data-fetching/get-server-side-props) or [`getInitialProps`](/docs/pages/api-reference/functions/get-initial-props) from a page, it will be marked as dynamic.
