Description
Gatsby JS is a free and open source framework based on React that helps developers build blazing fast static site generator which can create websites and apps.
But what does this even mean?
Well… it combines together the best parts of React, Webpack, React-router, GraphQL, and other front-end tools in to one and creates an amazing tool enjoyable for developers!
With Gatsby JS you can use modern web tech without the headache. Everything will be setup and will be waiting for you to start building.
One of the best things about Gatsby is that you can bring your own data from headless CMS, APIs, Databases or the file system.
There is no limit there.
You can source data even from WordPress
And this makes it very easy for clients to interact with the website that you have built for them and add new content.
They just need to update their posts on WordPress and that’s it…
Also with Gatsby you will NOT build a website with last decade’s tech.
The future of the web is mobile, JavaScript and APIs—the JAMstack.
Every website is a web app and every web app is a website.
With Gatsby It is very easy to make your project a Static Progressive Web App (PWA)
You get code and data splitting out-of-the-box.
Gatsby loads only the critical HTML, CSS, data, and JavaScript so your site loads as fast as possible. Once loaded, Gatsby prefetches resources for other pages so clicking around the site feels incredibly fast.
Gatsby.js builds the fastest possible website.
Instead of waiting to generate pages when requested, pre-build pages and lift them into a global cloud of servers — ready to be delivered instantly to your users wherever they are.
