The baseline setup in Gatsby will take you far, but in any complex web app, you’ll end up needing to go beyond the defaults. This course will teach you how to leverage Gatsby’s APIs to handle advanced use cases like handling custom data and dynamic pages, client-only routes and protected routes, and customizing Gatsby’s schema and GraphQL API data. You’ll even learn to use serverless functions to add new superpowers to Gatsby!
