Chakra UI's Gatsby TypeScript Starter

Start building your Gatsby project with speed using this Chakra UI boilerplate with TypeScript.

🚀 Quick start

  1. Create a Gatsby site.

    Use the Gatsby CLI (install instructions) to create a new site, specifying the chakra-ui TypeScript starter.

    # create a new Gatsby site using the chakra-ui TypeScript starter
    gatsby new my-chakra-ui-starter https://github.com/chakra-ui/gatsby-starter-chakra-ui-ts
  2. Start developing.

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

    cd my-chakra-ui-starter/
    gatsby develop
  3. Open the source code and start editing!

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

    Note: You'll also see a second link: http://localhost:8000/___graphql. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the Gatsby Tutorial.

    Open the my-chakra-ui-starter directory in your code editor of choice and edit src/pages/index.js. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!

🤔 What's inside?

A quick look at the top-level files and directories you'll see in a typical Gatsby project.

.
├── node_modules
├── src
├── .gitignore
├── gatsby-browser.js
├── gatsby-config.js
├── gatsby-node.js
├── gatsby-ssr.js
├── LICENSE
├── package.json
└── README.md
  1. /node_modules: This directory contains all of the modules of code that your project depends on (npm packages) are automatically installed.

  2. /src: This directory will contain all of the code related to what you will see on the front-end of your site (what you see in the browser) such as your site header or a page template. src is a convention for “source code”.

  3. .gitignore: This file tells git which files it should not track / not maintain a version history for.

  4. gatsby-browser.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby browser APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting the browser.

  5. gatsby-config.js: This is the main configuration file for a Gatsby site. This is where you can specify information about your site (metadata) like the site title and description, which Gatsby plugins you’d like to include, etc. (Check out the config docs for more detail).

  6. gatsby-node.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby Node APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting pieces of the site build process.

  7. gatsby-ssr.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby server-side rendering APIs (if any). These allow customization of default Gatsby settings affecting server-side rendering.

  8. LICENSE: This Gatsby starter is licensed under the 0BSD license. This means that you can see this file as a placeholder and replace it with your own license.

  9. package.json: A manifest file for Node.js projects, which includes things like metadata (the project’s name, author, etc). This manifest is how npm knows which packages to install for your project.

  10. README.md: A text file containing useful reference information about your project.

  • For most developers, we recommend starting with our 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 our documentation. In particular, check out the Guides, API Reference, and Advanced Tutorials sections in the sidebar.

⚡Learning Chakra UI

You can find full documentation for Chakra UI at chakra-ui.com.

  • The setup needed for the library to work with Gatsby is already done for you. Visit the Getting Started - Gatsby guide for more options.
  • The Chakra CLI is available to you to generate typings for your custom theme tokens, which is great for IDE autocompletion!
