JAMstack
In 2015 CEO of Netlify Mathias Biilmann was first coined the term JAMstack 1 2 3 (Javascript, API, Markup) generated by a static site generator 4 (SSG).
Jamstack is an architectural approach that decouples the web experience layer from data and business logic, improving flexibility, scalability, performance, and maintainability.
Some reasons why we might consider the JAMstack include:
- Faster performance,
- Higher security,
- Lower cost.
