Gatsby Meta Refresh Redirect Plugin
JSON →gatsby-plugin-meta-redirect is a Gatsby plugin designed to generate static HTML files containing a `<meta http-equiv="refresh">` tag. This enables client-side redirects on any static file host, such as S3 or Netlify, without requiring server-side redirect rules or `.htaccess` configurations. The plugin processes `createRedirect` actions called within Gatsby's Node API (e.g., in `gatsby-node.js`) and outputs an `index.html` file at the `fromPath` containing the meta refresh tag pointing to the `toPath`. Currently at version 1.1.1, the package has not seen updates in over seven years, indicating an abandoned maintenance schedule. Its primary differentiator is the universal compatibility across static hosts, but this comes with SEO and user experience trade-offs compared to server-side 301 redirects.
