Outline
Let's dip our toes into using GraphQL with Gatsby to get some site metadata.
In this video, we'll add a site-wide title, author, and description that we can use anywhere by querying for it.
First, open up gatsby-config.js
. Above the plugins array, add a siteMetadata
object:
siteMetadata: {
title: "Gatsby Thinkster",
description: "Gatsby is awesome!",
author: "Sam Julien",
},
Before we start using this data, let's learn about the GraphiQL explorer (your new best friend) in the next video.
