Plop generators - npm run generate

To avoid any boring copy/paste, this starter-kit have many generators to permit simple bootstrap of current file pattern (eg. components/pages/blog posts). e.g. to add a new blog post first add the authors to data/authors.json and add authors' images to the data/avatars folder. Next execute 'npm run generate' and select 'Blog post'. Follow the prompts for a new post. Each blog post requires an image be added to the /data/blog/ folder prior to running 'gatsby develop'.

You can add/delete/modify any generators into /generators folder.

Be lazy and have fun!
