Introducing Gatsby Deep Dives with Queen Raae and the Nattermob pirates

Hello there,

Let me introduce you to:

Gatsby Deep Dives with me (Queen Raae) and the Nattermob pirates
– An unauthorized and rum-fueled treasure hunt in the sharky waters around the Gatsby islands.

You may catch it live on the YouTubes every Friday at 20:00 (CEST).

On the show, we go beyond the typical blog example as we build out nattermob.dev (very meta).

Each voyage has a specific destination in mind. My internet friend Pirate Paul is in charge of getting us there, while the other pirate or two makes sure we keep it entertaining.

Sometimes there is even a special guest pirate, like this Friday when we were joined by Gatsby Tech Lead Ward Peeters.

So far, we have:

• Deployed a minimal site to Gatsby Cloud from scratch, no starter!
• Made Gatsby content nodes of the streams using the YouTube API
• and then made them into pages using the Gatsby File System Route API.

Next week we are:

• either deep-diving into the Gatsby Image Plugin,
• or setting up the index page with all the streams and proper pagination.

Would you like to get reminders about future voyages (and possibly at some later point Gatsby related content)?

If so, click here, and you will be added to the Nattermob newsletter.

Until next week,
Benedicte

PS: Ola is one of the regular pirates on the show, and yes, he did absolutely have a hand in coming up with the name and concept.
