Project Overview

Gatsby Advanced Pages is a thin layer over Gatsby’s createPage API that makes it easy to define pages and named routes, add pagination, and generate URLs—without hand-rolled boilerplate. It also ships a Link wrapper and a Pagination component for drop-in UIs.

Key Features

Pages config via pages.config.(yaml|json|js) or inline plugin options.
Page helpers to create dynamic page sets (e.g., blog indexes) with built-in pagination.
Named routes + URL generation (generatePath, navigate) from route names and params.
Components: Link (route-aware) and Pagination (with GraphQL fragment support).
Hooks: useRoute, useIsRoute for route checks and active state.
Boilerplate reduction: centralizes routes, standardizes pagination/URLs, and keeps templates small.

Why it exists

Cuts repeated createPage boilerplate, centralizes routes, and standardizes pagination/URLs so templates stay small and maintainable.
