The Official Starter for the theme Gatsby Theme Unicorn

A Gatsby theme for creating a blog with awesome typography.

## Demo
[Site Demo](https://gatsby-starter-unicorn.netlify.com/)
[Theme](https://github.com/mohanmonu777/gatsby_theme_unicorn)

## πŸš€ Quick start

1. **Create a Gatsby site.**

Use the Gatsby CLI to create a new site, specifying the default starter.

```sh
gatsby new your-site-name https://github.com/mohanmonu777/gatsby_starter_unicorn.git
```

1. **Start developing.**

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

```sh
cd my-default-starter/
gatsby develop
```

1. **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](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/tutorial/part-five/#introducing-graphiql)._

Open the `my-default-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 Gatsby project.

.
β”œβ”€β”€ node_modules
β”œβ”€β”€ src
β”œβ”€β”€ .gitignore
β”œβ”€β”€ gatsby-config.js
β”œβ”€β”€ package-lock.json
β”œβ”€β”€ 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 β€œsource code”.

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

6. **`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](https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/gatsby-config/) for more detail).

10. **`package-lock.json`** (See `package.json` below, first). This is an automatically generated file based on the exact versions of your npm dependencies that were installed for your project. **(You won’t change this file directly).**

11. **`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.

12. **`README.md`**: A text file containing useful reference information about your project.
