Have you heard the term Jamstack? This is probably the future of web development

Let's understand what is jamstack in this thread

So the JAM stands for

J - JavaScript
A - APIs
M - Markup
Stack - Technologies used to build a particular project

The first interesting part here is that in some context we all have worked on Jamstack.

Trust me!!

Consider a HTML file only, let's say with some text nothing else. Yes that's a Jamstack app becuase there is a markup in your app that makes it JAMstack

The second interesting part in jamstack is that you have already aware of all the terms used in it

JavaScript
APIs
Markup

So it will be easy for you to getting started with it

A first and foremost condition to be a jamstack is that your HTML should be served statically.
In simple terms we can say that HTML file should not being dynamically served from a server

But that doesn’t mean you have to build 100% of the app within the browser

You can also use static site generators(say Next.js) that allow us to pull in our files at build time and render the pages out as HTML files

So here comes some benefits of Jamstack

FAST

As in jamstack we are working on static site. So we don't have to wait for servers to calculate our request and serve us the markup file.

SECURE

Well jamstacks apps are super secure because we don't have to maintain the server

SCALE

As jamstack app is served entirely from a CDN there is no complex logic to determine what assets can be send, that pretty much automatically gives you infinite scalability

Maintainability

Obviously when hosting complexity is reduced, so are maintenance tasks

Tools you need in order to make a jamstack app

Site Generators - Gatsby, Next.js, Hugo, etc...
Serving your app - Netlify, GitHub, AWS, etc...
For API requests - Ghost, Strapi, Netlify CMS, etc...
