Where do console.log()s in getServerSideProps() go?

TL;DR:
console.logs() in getServerSideProps() do not show on either the browser console or the terminal where I run "npm run dev". So where do they go?

My current understanding of what is happening:
Let's say I'm running a next.js app locally. So I run "npm run dev", a server opens up on localhost:3000. When, on my browser, I access "localhost:3000/", the server looks for my index.js page, runs its corresponding getServerSideProps() function, creates the HTML, then serves the browser some HTML and JS for that page. The getServerSideProps() is never given to the browser, so any console.log()s present there are not shown on the browser console. However, they don't show up in my terminal either, which I don't understand.
