Hey Jeff! 👋 Do you prefer to do May or July?
Hey Jeff! Just wanted to follow up, we can put you in for May if you want to speak then?
Hey Jeff! We’re still interested in you giving this talk if you want to!
So sorry I didnt get the notifications for this. I am available whenever you want to schedule this.
No problem! Can I book you for October?
That should work.
Hey Jeff, are you still good for October? Just wanted to follow up. If you are, could I get a more ironed out abstract?
Yes, I am good. How long is the presentation? Got it 45 mins
Here is what I am thinking so far:
Intro: 5 mins
Case Study:DOI-ONRR Data Portal: 5 mins
Gatsby Simple Site Example (Generate a few basic pages with Gatsby): 15 mins
Gatsby Graphql: 10 mins
Case Study Continued: DOI-ONRR: 2 Mins
Conclusion/Wrapup: 1 min
This all looks great, could we get the abstract as a one paragraph summary for the meetup page? Thanks!
Hey Jeff! The sooner we could get the abstract that would be great so we can spread the word, thanks!
Well work on that today and get it to you before the EOB
Government websites and apps aren’t generally known for using the latest tech stacks, but our small team wanted to change that. Our open data site weaves together data from multiple sources, powering visualizations, filterable tables, and supporting content. In an effort to improve site performance and maintainability – while reducing our technical debt – we turned to the JAMstack, specifically GatsbyJS. Using React and GraphQL, Gatsby allowed us to create a modern, flexible component architecture. We can now query data from virtually any source with our GraphQL schema, and we’ve transformed our data maintenance workflow to allow anyone, not just developers, to update the site.
This talk will include a basic introduction to the JAMstack, building a site with Gatsby and lessons learned from our project.
Hey Matt, This is for October ?
haha woops! I edited it for next October 2nd, LMK if that doesn't work!
Phew. Thats Perfect. Thanks.
Working on the Prez this weekend so no worries.
Perfect! Let me know if you have any questions or need any help or feedback. Happy to help

A few words about yourself: I learned how to program from my mother in second grade and thought it was fun. I was lucky enough to turn my hobby into a career. I have been programming since Java 1.3 and JSP 1.0. Started with javascript and have circled back to what is my favorite language to use.
Currently working for the DOI(Dept of Interior) on a data analytics site that uses D3 for data visualizations and recently change from jekyll/webcomponents to using gatsby/react. Gatsby is based on javascript/react/graphql and thought it might be interesting to folks to learn about how to generate a static site. I know I learned a lot.
Also Star Wars wishes they could be as cool as Star Trek.
Talk title: No title. Just Gatsby for now
Talk abstract:
So recently we gave a talk on why we switched from Jekyll to Gatsby however for this group I can focus on just gatsby and the various features it provides for taking data from excel to graphql to react to d3 to the web. I can also talk about the reasons for us using a static site and leveraging markdown with custom react components embedded in the markdown.
Anyway you mentioned you have trouble getting speakers so I though I would throw this out there to gauge interest.
Expected length: 30 to 45 mins
