Summary

Design+Code revamped their website using Gatsby to enhance content delivery and meet growing sales targets, leveraging their familiarity with React. Initially started by Meng To in 2015 with a digital book on iOS app design, Design+Code has evolved into a subscription-based learning platform offering courses on building real apps, with their React course gaining particular popularity. The new Gatsby-powered site, integrated with a Stripe subscription system, supports the company's shift from downloadable content to a full-fledged learning platform, effectively handling content growth and driving business. Gatsby was chosen for its compatibility with modern tools like GraphQL and its ease of use, which aligns with Design+Code's philosophy of teaching what they create. This shift resulted in significant improvements in SEO performance, as evidenced by high Lighthouse scores, and a successful launch that saw Design+Code achieve top rankings on Product Hunt.
