I'm a Senior Developer and Co-host of Friday Night Deploys Podcast. I'm also a dad that likes to play video games and lift, always failing to keep it real with the kidz.
Really enjoyed the transparency and being open about the pain points of using and customizing the official blog theme! Kind of like a dev diary!
I started a similar approach recently with blogging step by step as I use and customize the Gatsby Blog Theme into an existing Gatsby site my friend and I made for our podcast so we can also start blogging on it!

I have Part 2 in the works that I'm hoping to publish soon that dives into some component shadowing!
Look forward to your part 2 and the kind of friction that can be reduced in the future with themes!
That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing. I’ll definitely give it a read :)
