33. Gatsby
● No native asset pipelining
● Slow, manual DOM manipulation
● Replicate elements by copy-paste
● Refresh to view changes
● State coupled w/ DOM
● ES5 + polyfill for cross-browser compatibility
● Create document-based sites
● Code splitting, responsive images, etc
● Virtual DOM & declarative UI w/ React
● Componentization
● Hot reloading
● One-directional data flow
● ES6 + ES7 automatically transpiled
● Create app-like experiences
Before: vanilla HTML, CSS, JS
=>
#2 Most Hated
Technology
=>
Now: higher-level lang + patterns
A cutting-edge stack built for iteration speed
Vision

34. Before: laborious content migrations &
manually stitching data sources together
Now: pull data from anywhere.
Build with React & GraphQL.
Gatsby
=>
Vision
Data & CMS-agnostic development

35. Gatsby
One-click global deployment
Vision
● Content delivery networks
● Global load balancing
● Server redundancy and failover
● Continuous deployment and integration
● Performance and error profiling
● Security vulnerabilities
● And so much more
Now: Easy & free CI/CD pipeline +
CDN to deploy your website
Before: website deployment requires ops
expertise // expensive hosting
+

36. Now: Out of the box tooling to
make everyone productive
Gatsby
● Maintained for you -- no upgrading dependencies,
starting five different processes in the correct
order, hand-rolling a build pipeline….
● Documented -- your new team member can
Google for help when they’re stuck
● User-friendly -- built-in hot reloading, see helpful
error messages instead of confusing stacktraces,
etc
Before: mostly-working env maintained by
your best devs in their spare cycles
A friendly local dev environment
Vision
● Maintained by you -- your best dev set up the
asset build pipeline, deploys, and dev server. She
handles library upgrades and is the only one who
understand how all the pieces fit.
● Undocumented -- new team members frequently
blocked on weird quirks you forgot to write down
● Stack traces of death -- bugs throw application
errors, NGINX timeouts, and other errors that
frontend developers find impossible to debug
