Write a Tutorial from WordPress with WP GraphQL

Summary

Over the weekend, I put some time in getting a WPGraphQL starter together for Gatsby. I’d noticed the other WordPress starters were based on the gatsby-source-wordpress plugin, and not the using gatsby-source-graphql or the WP GraphQL plugin… Bummer!

Also, I noticed there wasn’t a tutorial for this. I’d like to write up a tutorial for sourcing from WordPress using WP GraphQL. Currently, I believe, there’s just this tutorial available.

Two ways I thought of doing this:

1. Would it be good to add a section at the bottom with the WPGraphQL tutorial, basically keeping the currently tutorial at the top. At the beginning it’d have the option to skip down to the WPGraphQL section, or stay at the top with the gatsby-source-wordpress plugin.
2. Or, would it be better to write a separate tutorial altogether?

Motivation

This would be great to have for folks wanting to specifically to work with WP GraphQL on their Gatsby site.

Let me know if this would be a good addition to the docs and how I should go about adding it.

Thank you! Nate

@Kallirroi we’re moving it into beta within the next couple weeks. The plan was to have a release candidate by the end of this month but a few things delayed it. I’d like to be in beta for a while to have a chance to catch any major bugs so it will likely be a month or two longer until it starts being published on gatsby-source-wordpress@v4.
