About this episode
From open source project to a $3.8 million dollar seed round to transform Gatsby.js into a full-blown startup that's building what's becoming the defacto modern web frontend. In this episode, we talk with Jason Lengstorf about this blazing-fast static site generator, its building blocks and how they all fit together, the future of web development on the JAMstack (JavaScript + APIs), the importance of site performance, site rebuilds, getting started, and how they're focused on building an awesome product and an awesome community.
