## What it is
A CLI tool that migrates a Medium blog to a self-hosted Gatsby-based blog in minutes. It exports Medium content into Markdown/MDX and scaffolds a customizable, SEO-friendly static site deployable to Netlify, Now.sh, or Docker.

## Use cases
- migrate my medium blog to my own site
- export medium posts to markdown
- set up a gatsby blog from medium content
- leave medium and self-host my blog
- convert medium articles to mdx

## When to choose
- you want to leave Medium and own your content quickly
- you want a Gatsby/MDX static blog preloaded with your Medium posts
- you want easy deployment to Netlify or Docker

## When to avoid
- you use a blogging platform other than Medium
- you need a non-Gatsby site generator like Hugo or Next.js
- your Medium posts contain complex HTML that breaks JSX parsing and you need automated handling

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: static-site-generator, web-scraping, cli, markdown
- domain: web-development, developer-tools, cms
- platform: cli, cross-platform
