Gatsby

Gatsby is an open-source, React-based framework for building fast, secure, content-driven websites and applications using GraphQL data sourcing, static site generation (SSG), server-side rendering (SSR), and deferred static generation (DSG). Gatsby is now stewarded by Netlify, which acquired the company in 2023 and sunset the hosted Gatsby Cloud build and preview service, migrating customers to Netlify's unified platform. Gatsby itself is a build-time framework and does not expose a public hosted REST API; integrations are performed locally through its GraphQL data layer and plugin ecosystem.
