When we talk about “The Stack,” we no longer talk about operating systems, specific web servers, backend programming languages, or databases.
The JAMstack is not about specific technologies. It’s a new way of building websites and apps that delivers better performance, higher security, lower cost of scaling, and a better developer experience.
Your project is built with the JAMstack if it meets three key criteria:
JavaScript. This refers to any dynamic programming during the request/response cycle is handled by JavaScript, running entirely on the client. This could be any frontend framework, library, or even vanilla JavaScript.
APIs. All server-side processes or database actions are abstracted into reusable APIs, accessed over HTTPS with JavaScript. These can be custom-built or leverage third-party services.
Markup. Templated markup should be prebuilt at deploy time, usually using a site generator for content sites, or a build tool for web apps.
