Where are we coming from?
The age of the monolithic architecture
BEFORE ALL OF That
If you made an “index.html” file for your cafe and put the soup of the day on it and hosted on bare-bones hosting, that’s a JAMstack site. Like we did in like 1993. No fancy server-side languages. No database. Just a file with some content on it.
-
Poor Security
-
Performance
-
Scalability
The age of Git , Microservices and ES6
The need to switch became clearer
The JAMstack
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Nope, it's not superman.
JavaScript, APIs & Markup
Client & Server
Services
JAMstack Superpowers
-
Better Performance
-
High-security
-
Cheap and Fast deployment
JAMstack uses this line to Jump rope.
It goes way beyond static
-
Build SPAs having state like cart and notification counts
-
Handle authentication and user validation
-
Handle payments and complex business logic
-
Make database calls
Can we still call this a thing for Blogs and simple websites?
This is the future!
