Gatsby Starter Organization is a Gatsby starter template that scaffolds a site using the @geocine/gatsby-theme-organization plugin, giving you a pre-configured base for an organization website.
What is Gatsby Starter Organization?
Gatsby Starter Organization is a starter repository that uses the @geocine/gatsby-theme-organization plugin. Its core function is to provide a working Gatsby project with the organization theme already installed, so you can begin building an organization site without manually setting up the theme. The starter takes a fresh Gatsby project and outputs a configured skeleton that includes the theme. It is hosted on GitHub under the geocine account, and the repository currently has 3 stars.
Key Features
- Uses the organization theme — The starter pre-installs @geocine/gatsby-theme-organization, saving you from manually adding and wiring the theme into a Gatsby project.
- Built on Gatsby — The project is based on Gatsby, a React-powered static site generator that compiles content into optimized static HTML files.
- GitHub-hosted with topics — The repository is located on GitHub under the geocine account and is tagged with gatsby, gatsby-starter, and gatsbyjs topics.
- Configuration guidance — For instructions on how to configure the plugin, the starter points you to the dedicated theme repository rather than duplicating setup docs.
- Screenshot preview — The repository includes a screenshot showing what the starter looks like when run.
Who is it for?
- Developers building an organization website — You can clone this starter to get a Gatsby site that already has the organization theme integrated, then customize it for your own company, team, or institution.
- Gatsby users interested in themes — The starter demonstrates a minimal setup for consuming a Gatsby theme, making it useful for learning how themes are applied via gatsby-config.js.
- Teams that want a quick start — Instead of starting from a blank Gatsby project and installing the theme yourself, this starter provides an immediate starting point with the theme already in place.
What can you do with Gatsby Starter Organization?
- Launch an organization site — Use the starter as the base and then follow the plugin configuration instructions in the theme repository to add content, set up data sources, and adjust appearance.
- Study theme integration — Inspect the starter's files to see how a Gatsby theme plugin is imported and configured through the Gatsby configuration file.
- Extend with Gatsby features — Because the starter is a Gatsby project, you can add additional pages, plugins, and static or sourced data on top of the theme.
