Todo App Gatsby Redux Toolkit is a Gatsby boilerplate that scaffolds a CRUD todo application with Redux Toolkit for state management and Firebase as the backend API.
What is Todo App Gatsby Redux Toolkit?
This starter is based on the Gatsby Minimal Starter and is extended, per the repository description, into a CRUD todo app using ReduxJS-Toolkit and Firebase-API. It takes a fresh Gatsby site as its input and produces a working todo application skeleton with create, read, update, and delete functionality. Development runs on the Gatsby server at http://localhost:8000, and the README provides a one-click deployment path to Netlify.

npm init gatsbyandnpm run developworkflow described in the README. - Redux Toolkit state management — The app uses ReduxJS-Toolkit to handle todo state and CRUD actions on the client.
- Firebase API backend — Firebase is integrated as the API layer, providing persistent data storage for the todo items.
- One-click Netlify deploy — The README includes a deploy button that pushes the repository directly to Netlify for a live site.
- Real-time development updates — Editing
