This will be a super quick update since I am in the middle of my site build. After launching my Tailwind + Emotion Gatsby Starter, and updating the readme to add some clearer examples, I got cracking on planning out my own site and even had a chace to start building.
What I've done this week:
- Gathered sample sites for inspiration
- Collected a handful open-source Gatsby sites on Github to learn some tips and tricks
- Planned out the IA and content
- Gathered links and placeholder content
- Set up the Github repo
- Planned out the entire Github Project Board
- Started building out the site skeleton
To do next week:
- Install and configiure node packages and gatsby plugins
- Write content
- Write sample queries to pull the content I need
- Wire up a skeleton to pull in content
- Build out the site components
- Properly style the site
- Set up hosting
- Make sure it's ready to launch
- Profit? 💰
