Summary

The Gatsby CLI Survey results reveal insights into user satisfaction and the demographic benefiting from Gatsby's offerings. Conducted from April to June 2020, the survey indicates a slight increase in users who would be "very disappointed" if they could no longer use Gatsby, with a consistent goal of maintaining this sentiment above 60%. The survey highlights a distinction between those who find Gatsby indispensable, including developers, marketers, and end users, versus those who see its primary benefit for developers. The main advantage cited by users has shifted from Gatsby's fast setup to its ability to create high-performance websites, reflecting the tool's evolving capabilities. Although requests for incremental builds have decreased due to Gatsby's recent advancements, there is a growing demand for more CMS and MDX support. The survey, conducted quarterly, helps guide Gatsby's development focus, and users are encouraged to provide feedback through the CLI or by trying Gatsby for themselves.
