I'll kick things off!

On jacobb.uk I'm using Gatsby with Material-UI for styling. Mostly so I can stay in the react world. Hasn't changed much from last aside from adding blog posts to play with Netlify CMS.

I build my website last year and refreshed it this year, so I guess I am still allowed to answer 😉.

I used Gatsby (👍) too but, no templates nor design systems aka just custom made CSS.

Looks good! I have to say I did think the Tie Tracker project was about formal wear before I noticed the logo 😛

Hahaha if one day I stop freelancing and wearing shorts at work, I can reuse the brand name to sell sustainable ecological tie 😉

You can use blockchain to track the tie from raw materials to point of sale!

I might be able to raise US$ 100 millions on a serie A with such an idea 😉

That's minimal and great. Could you share the learning resources to add Material-UI with Gatsby (except official documentation) ?

I've theweeklyspark.net and it's using Materialize CSS only. I want to convert it to Material-UI powered design.
