Feature Request: Dynamic year in footer

[jacobsowles]

Summary

Currently, the copyright year is hard-coded to 2018 in the footer. Ideally, it would be dynamically generated via JavaScript.

Motivation

As it stands, every Gatsby user will need to go in and manually update the year in the footer annually. It would be nice to eliminate that need.

I can make this change if the feature request is approved.

Hey @jacobsowles

We’d love to accept a PR for this. Just FYI, the copyright footer is in both the default and blog starters.

Thanks!

Awesome, I'm on it.
