A slimmer Gatsby starter.

Get gatsby:

npm install -g gatsby

Get started with this starter:

gatsby new my-simple-site gh:chbrown/gatsby-starter-zero

Go forth and develop!

cd my-simple-site
gatsby develop

When it's all ready:

gatsby build

• .gitignore: not required, but the gatsby command isn't exactly tidy, so it's handy to have these defaults.
• config.toml: bafflingly, this file's presence is required, but it doesn't have to contain anything.
• html.js: should be called Layout.jsx or something but yeah, it's required, and has to have this filename.
  • module.exports must be set to an actual React.Component class (a stateless functional component won't cut it)
• package.json: required, but gatsby the dependency transitively pulls in react and react-dom.
• pages/: each file in here will be served as a distinct URL. E.g., pages/admin.js would be served as /admin/
• README.md: not required!
• site.css: not required, but the gatsby build will choke when inlining css without some css having been used.

rev=$(git rev-parse --short master)
repo=${TMPDIR-/tmp/}gatsby-starter-zero-gh-pages
git clone [email protected]:chbrown/gatsby-starter-zero.git -b gh-pages $repo
gatsby build && cp -R public/ $repo
cd $repo && git add . && git commit -m "Sync with master @ $rev" && git push
