Recipes are designed to make life as a Gatsby developer even easier, and Khaled Garbaya shows exactly how much. He walks through setting up a Contentful blog with TailwindCSS before and after Gatsby Recipes -- taking us from seven steps to just one.

Gatsby Recipes were introduced just last month, as a new tool to automate common site building tasks. A Gatsby Recipe is a kind of task runner that can be authored in MDX and then executed from the command line using the Gatsby CLI. Gatsby now ships with a dozen or so default Recipes, and our amazing community has been busy coming up with more useful contributions! React developer Paul Scanlon discussed his process behind making his first two Recipes, and then walks through how to write your own.
