🚀 Getting Started

1. Create a Gatsby site.

Use the Gatsby CLI to create a new site, specifying this project

gatsby new project-name https://github.com/LekoArts/gatsby-starter-minimal-blog

2. Start developing.

Navigate into your new site's directory and start it up.

cd project-name
gatsby develop

3. Open the code and start customizing!

Your site is now running at http://localhost:8000!

If you want to learn more about how you can use a Gatsby starter that is configured with a Gatsby theme, you can checkout this shorter or longer tutorial. The tutorials don't exactly apply to this starter however the concepts are the same.

📝 Using and modifying this starter

Important Note: Please read the guide Shadowing in Gatsby Themes to understand how to customize the underlying theme!

This starter creates a new Gatsby site that installs and configures the theme @lekoarts/gatsby-theme-minimal-blog.

Have a look at the theme's README and files to see what options are available and how you can shadow the various components including Theme UI. Generally speaking you will want to place your files into src/@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-minimal-blog/ to shadow/override files. The Theme UI config can be configured by shadowing its files in src/gatsby-plugin-theme-ui/.

Code Highlighting

Since the underlying theme ships with prism-react-renderer and react-live certain additional features were added to code blocks. You can find an overview / usage example in the example repository! If you want to change certain code styles or add additional language tabs, you need to shadow the file src/@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-minimal-blog/styles/code.js.

Language tabs:

When you add a language (such as e.g. js or javascript) to the code block, a little tab will appear at the top left corner.

// code goes here

Code titles:

You can display a title (e.g. the file path) above the code block.

// code goes here

Or without a specific language:

// code goes here

Line highlighting:

You can highlight single or multiple (or both) lines in a code block. You need to add a language.

const test = 3
const foo = 'bar'
const harry = 'potter'
const hermione = 'granger'
const ron = 'weasley'

Hide line numbers:

If you want to hide line numbers you can either globally disable them (see Theme options) or on a block-by-block basis. You can also combine that with the other attributes.

// code goes here

react-live:

Add react-live to the code block (and render the component) to see a preview below it.

const onClick = () => {
  alert("You opened me");
};
render(<button onClick={onClick}>Alohomora!</button>);

Adding content

Adding a new blog post

New blog posts will be shown on the index page (the three most recent ones) of this theme and on the blog overview page. They can be added by creating MDX files inside content/posts. General setup:

1. Create a new folder inside content/posts
2. Create a new index.mdx file, and add the frontmatter
3. Add images to the created folder (from step 1) you want to reference in your blog post
4. Reference an image as your banner in the frontmatter
5. Write your content below the frontmatter

Frontmatter reference:

---
title: Introduction to "Defence against the Dark Arts"
date: 2020-11-07
description: Defence Against the Dark Arts (abbreviated as DADA) is a subject taught at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
tags:
  - Tutorial
  - Dark Arts
banner: ./defence-against-the-dark-arts.jpg
---

The fields description and banner are optional! If no description is provided, an excerpt of the blog post will be used. If no banner is provided, the default siteImage (from siteMetadata) is used.

The date field has to be written in the format YYYY-MM-DD!

Adding a new page

Additional pages can be created by placing MDX files inside contents/pages, e.g. an "About" or "Contact" page. You'll manually need to link to those pages, for example by adding them to the navigation (in navigation option of the theme). General instructions:

1. Create a new folder inside content/pages
2. Create a new index.mdx file, and add the frontmatter
3. Write your content below the frontmatter
4. Optionally add files/images to the folder you want to reference from the page

Frontmatter reference:

---
title: About
slug: "/about"
---

Changing the "Hero" text

To edit the hero text ("Hi, I'm Lupin...), create a file at src/@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-minimal-blog/texts/hero.mdx to edit the text.

Changing the "Projects" part

To edit the projects part below "Latest posts", create a file at src/@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-minimal-blog/texts/bottom.mdx to edit the contents.

Change your static folder

The static folder contains the icons, social media images and robots.txt. Don't forget to change these files, too!

🎓 Learning Gatsby

Looking for more guidance? Full documentation for Gatsby lives on Gatsby's website.

Themes

• To learn more about Gatsby themes specifically, we recommend checking out the theme docs.

General

• For most developers, I recommend starting with the in-depth tutorial for creating a site with Gatsby. It starts with zero assumptions about your level of ability and walks through every step of the process.

• To dive straight into code samples, head to Gatsby's documentation. In particular, check out the Reference Guides and Gatsby API sections in the sidebar.
