Gatsby With NetlifyCMS Tutorial

[@jaimeseuma6969]

Thanks a lot Profesh for the vid! Short, sweet and to the point :-)

[@kycharle]

Nailed this video. I've been slowly starting to learn Gatsby to build a new site for my company, definitely going to hook it up to Netlify after seeing this!

[@dedefh23]

I had a lot of problems setting up this, and spent bunch hours. I don't know what to say except that thank you for those small details that they always miss on the docs. Subscribed to you and also big like. Thank you!!

[@WebDevProfesh]

THANK YOU, im subscribing! Ive been making html css js websites, should I go for react before gatsby? Im not used to advanced js yet, and component layout

Hi, thanks for the video. Question: does the site/ file exist? I am able to see the changes in the admin, but using the collection in the admin does not work. I get this error: ./src/pages/index.js Module not found: Can't resolve '../../site/settings/contact_info.json' in '/home/hanna/Code/blog/src/pages' Do I need to create it first?

Great video - loved the content with relevant examples. What font are you using in VS Code?

Hey guys I have a question. If I am trying to design a website BEFORE integrating a CMS. can i just query basic text from text fields on the CMS and inject them into specific pages? Or is my only option here to programmatically create separate new pages such as blog articles etc.

[@BobbyBundlez]

such a fantastic tutorial man. answered my question. It doesn't really seem to be matter how you use the data/content from CMS.. seems they give you full liberty with gatsby and Netlify CMS to query whatever data you want however you want

Hi, very helpful video, thanks! I usually create sites for my clients using Wordpress, but would this be a good alternative for making a site for client in Wordpress? Are there any downsides compared to WP?

[@WebDevProfesh]

Potentially. Just know that wordpress is a much safer pick and has a bunch of built in features and plugins that your clients might want. You may end up doing more work using this, but you will have more control over everything. For extremely needy clients, I would stick to wordpress so that at the end of the day you can just give them the credentials and let them add plugins and other features.

Thank you!

[@chrislanejones]

This was great man, very informative. I just wish it put the blog post in database instead of in a file structure.

[@fou2flo]

hey mate thanks for this video very usefull. Another side question: what is this VS code theme? (pink and dark) love it! any chance to share that?

[@WebDevProfesh]

Thank you! This is actually my own theme you can find it in the vs code extension marketplace when you search for hyperportal

[@vcaalnu34]

Is there a gitless solution? Because I don't understand why I would need to version control my personal blog website... I want to use a static-site generator, but also want the rich-text editor to post new articles, so I don't have to deal with the markup.

[@WebDevProfesh]

I don’t think Netflify CMS is for you then. Probably want to use headless Wordpress or sanity or contentful.

[@vcaalnu34]

@@WebDevProfesh I've found Publii Open Source CMS as an alternative, but I'm reading through whether I can implement it on top of an existing Jekyll theme.

Thanks for the vid - netlifyCMS documentation is a bit over the place.

[@danielmethner6847]

Thanks for the video! It would really help though, if you posted the npm commands either in the description of the video or if You moved the screen to a position where they are readable. Right now they end up right under the red loading bar in the youtube video, making it virtually impossible to read them. EDIT: Also the command "npm i netlify-cms-app gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms" throws an error: "Unexpected end of JSON input while parsing near '...T6T+1E6q7/vZO8FnXTbp0'"

[@Scottie345x]

followed the steps all the way up to the git add . its giving me the error fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories: .git any idea what I could have done wrong?

[@WebDevProfesh]

Possibly entered the remote git url wrong or didn't create your git repo?

[@Scottie345x]

@@WebDevProfesh said that Initial git commit failed 0 removing git support I ended up updating npm and restarting the project, worked like a charm Great tutorial!
