Sharing Components Across Websites

One of the benefits of multiple teams using Gatsby within your organization is the ability to share React components across different websites.

There are several strategies here.

Component libraries are a cleaner and purer approach, but often requiring additional tooling or causing some changes to require pull requests to multiple.

Alternately, teams can implement systems for component discoverability, such as Storybook or Styleguidist, on a per-site basis and simply copy-paste desired code across repositories.

To avoid copy-pasting and reuse components instead you can use component-sharing tools such as Bit to reuse and sync components between websites.
