ReactsbyBoilerplate Demonstration

The purpose of this demostration

Presenting a concept of technologies (React, Gatsby, Sanity, and Tailwind), that when combined offer a compelling full-stack solution for clients interested in working with Oneil. The term 'Jamstack' is a 'trending' term in the industry, signifying a modern web development architecture that utilizes client-side JavaScript, reusable APIs, and prebuilt Markup to deliver faster, more secure, and scalable online platforms. "Reactsby" (React + Gatsby) is a non-trademarked "name" that I created to introduce the concept of Jamstack development.

This page is likely to change or no longer be available at any point in time, and designed to be inntentionally 'boring'.

Development of a Blazing Fast, Infinitely Scalable Website using Gatsby, Sanity, and Tailwind CSS

Gatsby speeds up site loading by pre-rendering content and only loading the necessary assets, reducing initial load time. Its use of GraphQL allows for efficient data queries, pulling only what's needed. React's component-based structure means reusability. Instead of rewriting code, components can be reused, ensuring consistent behavior and faster development. Its Virtual DOM minimizes actual DOM manipulations, which are costly in terms of performance. Tailwind CSS's utility-first approach means developers can craft interfaces without writing custom CSS, resulting in quicker, consistent design iterations. In the real estate context, a fast, reliable, and visually consistent site can lead to longer user engagement and potentially more sales.

Tech Stack
(JavaScript)

  • Gatsby is a free and open-source framework based on React that helps developers build blazing-fast websites and apps.

  • Tailwind CSS is a highly customizable, low-level CSS framework that gives you all of the building blocks you need to build bespoke designs without any annoying opinionated styles you have to fight to override.

  • React is an open-source, front-end JavaScript library for building user interfaces or UI components.

  • Sanity is a platform used to build structured content from the ground up, it's a content platform that integrates seamlessly with modern technologies, frameworks, and workflows.

Key Features:

  1. Fast Loading: Utilize Gatsby's performance optimizations.
  2. Dynamic Content: Integrate Sanity.io for real-time content updates.
  3. Stylish Design: Use Tailwind CSS for customizable, responsive design.
