62: Chris Biscardi on Gatsby Themes and Developing a Content Pipeline

This week we sit down with Chris Biscardi — open source developer and consultant.

He's working with Gatsby on projects like gatsby-mdx and gatsby-themes.

So we talk about what Gatsby Themes are, why they promise to bring a new wave of shareability to Gatsby sites, and what you need to know to start using them.

We also talk about designing a workflow around sharing what you know and building an effective content pipeline.
