Introduction

Learn how to set up your website on the CloudCannon Gatsby CMS.

Welcome to the CloudCannon Gatsby starter guide! If you want to get your Gatsby site built, editable, and live on CloudCannon, you are in the right place.

Before we start, this guide assumes you already have a Gatsby site uploaded to a Git repository. Although you can upload files directly from your hard drive, we highly recommend using a Git repository.

Don’t have a Gatsby site yet? No worries! You can create one with our Jamstack tutorials for your favorite SSGs.

With Gatsby, you can use CloudCannon’s Source Editor out-of-the-box. We’ll teach you how to configure our other editing interfaces: the Visual, Content, and Data Editors.

In this guide we’ll cover how to build your first site, update Gatsby to use file data, and configure Gatsby for the best CloudCannon experience.
