In our latest update to Gatsby Cloud, we’ve made some enhancements to deployments that have been truly game changing for faster release times.

We are excited to announce Gatsby v3.0! This new version of Gatsby’s core framework introduces massive improvement to the developer and user experience.

Gatsby helps developers build blazing fast websites. But how fast is build time for the actual website itself? And how can one developer advocate help reduce build times for thousands of others? The Kentico Kontent DevRel team got to work, looking for the answers.

Today we’re thrilled to announce we’ve secured 28 million in Series B funding led by Index Ventures and joined by earlier investors, CRV and Trinity Ventures. This investment will propel Gatsby’s next stage of innovation and evolution toward becoming how the web is built.

The first -- and only -- publicly available static site benchmarking service, Will It Build demonstrates the progress of build times for sample Gatsby benchmark sites on Gatsby Cloud. Thanks to our new Incremental Builds feature, data and content changes now go from edit to live in seconds! See for yourself: all of our data can be queried right on the site using our exposed GraphQL API at willit.build/api-playground.

A deeper look at Gatsby's recent announcement, how it changes the game for content editors, and what it means for the future.

This is how the web should work. Whatever can be built ahead of time should be built ahead of time. When content changes, only relevant pages should be rebuilt. Introducing Incremental Builds on Gatsby Cloud: an evolutionary leap forward to a seamless, fast experience for the developers, content editors and end users of any website—even if that site has millions of pages.
