library0.3.2jsnpmunverified

Netlify build plugin that persists the Gatsby .cache directory between builds on Netlify, drastically reducing rebuild times by avoiding redundant content processing. v0.3.2 (last release 2022). Maintenance mode – no active development, but stable for basic use. Key differentiator: minimal configuration (one TOML line) vs manual cache restore scripts. Works by saving/restoring the cache folder to Netlify's deploy cache. Only for Gatsby sites hosted on Netlify.
