WPGatsby

The combination of WordPress with Gatsby is a game-changer for multiple reasons. This plugin is the perfect glue for that combination, along with WPGraphQL!

I have been following the development of this plugin from early on. The folks at Gatsby – Jason, Tyler have worked super hard on this plugin – and the results speak for themselves!

Jamstack with WP and Gatsby is my go-to stack for when someone needs a fast site. I couldn't be happier to see this plugin on the repo, making blazing fast sites accessible for more folks getting into this stack!

Thanks so much to Gatsby folks and the whole community for putting out amazing work and keeping the community strong and helpful!

To infinity and beyond! 🚀

WP + Gatsby = ❤️

This plugin (along with Gatsby Cloud) got incremental builds working on our Gatsby/WordPress integration. It cut the build time down from ~2 minutes to ~10 seconds.

Along with the new gatsby-source-wordpress-experimental Gatsby plugin, the plugin imports links and images from WordPress to your Gatsby site.

Thanks for all of the hard work!
