About:
The Gatsby CLI (gatsby-cli) is the official command-line tool for creating, developing, and managing Gatsby sites. It provides a set of commands to bootstrap new projects, run a hot-reloading development server, build production-ready assets, and serve the site locally. It serves as the primary interface for developers to interact with the Gatsby framework and its ecosystem.

Key Features:

Initialize new Gatsby projects from starters or templates
Run a local development server with hot-reloading
Build optimized static assets for production deployment
Execute GraphQL queries for data layer development

Use Cases:

Scaffolding a new blog or marketing site using a Gatsby starter
Developing a headless website locally with real-time updates
Building and deploying a static site to a CDN or hosting provider

Alternatives:

Next.js CLI – CLI for the Next.js React framework, which supports both static generation and server-side rendering.
Create React App – A CLI for setting up React single-page applications without built-in static site generation features.
