This Meetup will be more web development focused, but is open to all. Rick Hood, lead Drupal developer at commonmedia.com, has offered to give an Intro to GatsbyJS presentation.

5:30pm – 5:45pm – Snacks & Networking
Grab some food, get a seat, log onto Wifi, say hi to a neighbor.

5:45pm – 6:45pm – Intro to GatsbyJS (with demos)
Gatsby (https://www.gatsbyjs.org/) is a a way to build React sites that has many advantages and is rapidly gaining popularity. It uses GraphQL as a central data store which can pull data from many (and multiple) sources. Gatsby makes this relatively simple by providing many starter kits to hook up to various backends from WordPress to Markdown files.

Sites built with Gatbsy are extremely fast. Gatsby is one of the “static site generators”, but there is nothing to keep you from having portions of the React front end query APIs for more dynamic content.

6:45pm – 7:00pm – Plan our next Meetup
