Gatsby JS is a framework for generating static HTML sites from React JS and GraphQL. There are many benefits to hosting a static site over a web application. Frameworks such as Metalsmith and Jekyll make it possible to build templates and git workflows to publish changes to Web sites. You can even integrate Wordpress sites into static sites using Gatsby JS.
This presentation will also cover hosting sites on Github Pages and Netlify.
The Jacksonville Node.js and Javascript User Group is for anyone interested in learning more about Node.js and JavaScript. JavaScript was originally created for scripting web browsers, but now JavaScript applications run on the server, desktop and even robots.
Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient.
