We're Not In East Egg, Anymore: Gatsby.js in Practice

Wednesday June 5, 9:00 AM (45 min)

Did you know that Gatsby.js is much more than a static site generator? Well, let’s build something to find out just what makes Gatsby.js not only an excellent choice for your personal website but also a great option for client and production sites, also. In this workshop, we’ll build a few different sites with Gatsby in order to learn how: Gatsby sources data (from almost anywhere) using GraphQL Gatsby generates your site as a progressive web app (PWA) and why that matters Gatsby simplifies deployment of your site by building it as static files How liberating the developer experience can be with Gatsby.js Attendees can expect to leave with at least one deployed Gatsby.js site. (Based on the desires of the attendees and time permitting, we will also demo hosting a Gatsby site at your own personal domain name - I’ve done it and have not looked back since.)
