Gatsby's WordPress integration combines the fastest front-end framework with the most popular CMS!
Joel Varty, president of Agility CMS, will be speaking at GatsbyConf on March 2nd! His presentation "Architecting Fullstack Solutions in a Jamstack World" will show why Jamstack architecture is more than just a frontend and discuss the kinds of solutions that Jamstack is great at solving. Joel will also demonstrate how you can add existing APIs onto your Jamstack solution -- and how you can build new APIs to solve unique customer problems. We caught up with Joel for a quick pre-conf chat about Gatsby and the Jamstack.
Everyone deals with imposter syndrome. It doesn’t matter if you are a complete beginner, a junior developer or senior developer with advanced skills. Everyone experiences those negative thoughts and doubts, secretly wondering if their work is as good as what everyone else around them seems to accomplish effortlessly. This is the story of how I dealt with imposter syndrome as a musician and how that experience helps me now as an emerging programmer.
When it comes to WordPress, going headless refers to keeping the familiar WordPress interface for collaborating on content creation, editing and updating. However, behind the scenes, you’ve ditched the cumbersome WordPress theme layer for faster and more efficient architecture powering how your content gets built, deployed, and presented to viewers.
GatsbyConf is now less than one month away, and we are super excited to announce our schedule of presenters and workshop hosts! Things are likely to evolve a bit as we get closer, so be sure to check the schedule on GatsbyConf.com for the most up to date information (and to reserve your spot in case you haven’t already).
BumHub: A silly idea, butt a firm working process. Hello, I’m Paul and for my Silly Site Challenge I created BumHub: “The cheekiest way to explore GitHub.” I developed this site in public and kept a dev diary of my progress throughout the challenge. For those of you who weren’t following along at home, here is a condensed rundown exposing my process behind building BumHub.
They came, they coded, they were seriously silly. Over 900 people registered for the first-ever Gatsby Silly Site Challenge, and 134 entries ultimately crossed the finish line. So much whimsy, creativity and laugh-out-loud humor from these widely varied projects meant naming the top twenty a difficult, though hilarious, task.
It's time to take Challenge 1's proof-of-concept project and launch it as a live website, complete with images (using our latest gatsby-plugin-image!), a contacts page with form, and optimizing for SEO.
