What is a JAMstack?

JAMstack explained

"A modern web development architecture based on client-side JavaScript, reusable APIs, and prebuilt Markup"

— Mathias Biilmann (CEO & Co-founder of Netlify).

JAM?

JAMstack explained

JavaScript

Dynamic functionality is handled by JavaScript, running on the clients browser. This could be any frontend framework or library.

APIs

Server-side operations are extracted away into APIs, that are accessed over HTTPS with JavaScript. These can be custom-built or third-party services.

Markup

Websites are served as plain static HTML files. These can be generated from source files, such as .vue, Markdown or similar, using a Static Site Generator.
