4.0.0: Gatsby 4, TypeScript default, Chakra UI and more

[South-Paw]

To align better with how I use this starter for my projects these days the following changes have been made

• The starter now uses TypeScript by default (and I will be deprecating awesome-gatsby-starter-ts)
• Chakra UI from the start (if you don't want it, can be easily removed)
• ESLint almost same as before
• Prettier almost same as before
• Common Gatsby Plugins; removed MDX which can be easily re-added if needed and removed styled-components in favor of Chakra UI component styling
• Added GitHub action workflows for deployment to Netlify (there are 3 workflows details beneath). These will require two secrets to be set in the repo: NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN and NETLIFY_SITE_ID
  • CI workflow runs lint on any commit not on master branch and then deploys the site as a draft to Netlify
  • Release workflow deploys the site as production to Netlify when a tag of the following format is created *.*.* e.g. 4.1.2 or 4.1.3-alpha.3
