Gatsby Starter

Chord's Gatsby starter is fully functional Gatsby ecommerce site, powered by the Chord API and Contentful. The GitHub repo includes pages, templates, components, and GraphQL queries that work out of the box, but are fully editable so you can build something beautiful!

Here are some common CLI commands that you'll use to work with the starter:

This command starts the development server. By default, your site will be available at http://localhost:8000, but if that port is already in use, you'll be prompted to choose another port. Hot reload is automatically enabled.

This starter uses Jest and react-testing-library to test React components.

You can run yarn test:watch as you're working on your tests to have the tests re-run automatically as you're editing them.

This command will compile the site and get it ready for deployment. It will result in a directory called public that contains your entire static site.

You can run this command to serve the production site you've generated with npm run serve, usually for local testing.

You might try this command if your local project seems to have issues around not getting the correct content. It wipes out your local cache.

This starter generates a product RSS feed that should be compatible with Google Merchant and Facebook Ads. To get your products to show across Google, including Shopping Ads, you must upload a product feed to your Google Merchant Center.
