## What it is
Lumen is a Gatsby-based starter architecture for building static blogs with React, GraphQL, and TypeScript. It provides a mobile-first blog setup with categories, tags, and Sentry error tracking out of the box.

## Use cases
- create a static blog with gatsby
- jamstack blog starter template
- react typescript blog architecture
- personal blog with categories and tags
- static site with sentry error tracking
- mobile-first blog theme

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made Gatsby blog you can customize
- you prefer TypeScript and a structured architecture over a bare theme
- you want a JAMstack blog deployable to static hosting

## When to avoid
- you need a dynamic, server-rendered blog with a CMS backend
- you don't want to work with Gatsby or React
- you need a general-purpose website builder rather than a blog

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: static-site-generator, templating, graphql, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend, documentation, cms
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: gatsby, jamstack, react, typescript, blog-theme, starter-template, sentry, bun, boilerplate, nodejs, web-server
