Preparing Your Environment

To get started with Gatsby, you’ll need to make sure you have the following software tools installed:

  1. Node.js
  2. npm CLI
  3. Gatsby CLI

For step-by-step installation instructions and detailed explanations of the required software, head on over to the Gatsby tutorial.

The quick start is also available for intermediate to advanced developers.

Note: If you work for an Enterprise-level company where you are unable to pull from public GitHub repositories, you can still set up Gatsby.
