Gatsby: Create a new project

Ready to go with your first project with Gatsby?

One of the first thing to know is surely how to create a new project in gatsby.

Here’s how to get started quickly!

Install Node.js

First make sure you have Node.js installed, so you can use npm (which will help you manage Node packages)

Not sure if you’ve installed or not?

Open your console and type:

node -v

If you have Node installed then you will also see your version!

Otherwise, go to Node page and install the right version for you.

Install Gatsby CLI, a npm package that will help you create a new site in no time.

Always in the terminal type:

npm install --g gatsby-cli

Do you want to create a site called “debuxing”? (no you do not want)
Use the last installed package and create it with:

gatsby new debuxing

The magic of creation is unfolding before your eyes, your site is being prepared for you.

Once completed move to the new folder you have created

cd debuxing

And make the engines roar!

gatbsy develop

Et voila! Your new site is ready for you on http: // localhost: 8000
