JamStack

JamStack is an architecture for creating more agile and secure websites or web applications.

It is not tied to any specific technology. This allows developers to choose from a variety of frameworks and other development tools.

The basic principle of JamStack is to move functionality from the back-end to the front-end, so it doesn't require communication through a server that slows down the application. It is therefore a modern solution that takes into account modern technologies such as the cloud.

JamStack's architecture consists of four parts: a static site generator, a headless CMS, a frontend framework and a CDN. The headless CMS position can be, for example, Strapi or Netlify. The frontend technology can be represented by Angular, Vue.js or React, for example. And a CDN is a network of servers used to deliver content.

The principle can then be explained in a very simplistic way that a static page generator creates a static page that is sent to the user's browser via the CDN.

The benefits of JamStack include cost savings due to the elimination of the back-end, increased application scalability, better SEO results, and improved developer and user experience.
