Jamstack (JavaScript, API, and Markup) enables web developers to create and publish modern and maintainable websites and web apps focused on speed, security, and accessibility by using tools such as Gatsby, Sanity, and Netlify. Developers working with Jamstack will be able to put their knowledge to good use with this practical guide to static site generation and content management. This Jamstack book takes a hands-on approach to implementation and related methodologies that will have you up and running with modern web development in no time.

Complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and self-assessment questions, youll begin by building an event and venue schema structure, and then expand the functionality, exploring all that the Jamstack has to offer. Youll learn how an example Jamstack is built, build structured content using Sanity to create a schema, use GraphQL to expose the content, and employ Gatsby to build an event website using page and template components and Tailwind CSS Framework. Lastly, youll deploy the website to both, a Netlify server and the Microsoft Static Web Apps Service, and interact with it using Amazon Alexa.

By the end of this book, youll have gained the knowledge and skills you need to install, configure, build, extend, and deploy a simple events website using Jamstack.

Foreword

Innovation is often driven by people who expect more and challenge the status quo. Instead of making small improvements to what is, they invent new paths that over time become inevitable. We reach a point where we can't imagine going back to where we came from.

The most common solutions for building web pages today were created in the early 2000s. What was once state of the art is now limiting digital projects and content collaboration, frustrating developers and content editors and leaving product and business owners with infrastructure that creates poor digital customer experiences and harms their capacity for digital transformation.

We are now finally seeing a reinvention of the way we approach content and digital experiences on the web, and the frameworks and services commonly known as Jamstack are a big part of this revolution. They have emerged as a response to the constraints of traditional monolithic web architectures: organizations need more security, scalability, and to service their audience's demand for better content at an ever-increasing rate of delivery.

Jamstack fulfills these needs in ways that monolithic systems simply cannot. These tools are redefining what's possible on the web and this book is the primer you need to make the leap into this new way of building. Christopher Pecoraro and Vincenzo Gambino provide a step-by-step process for building your own blazing-fast website and real-time backend by combining three innovative and industry-leading tools:

  • GatsbyJS: the highly popular React-based static site generator
  • Netlify: the industry-leading Jamstack web host and content delivery network
  • Sanity.io: the real-time content platform that lets you treat content as data

In addition to making fast websites, this book shows you how these tools can be used to present content to any application or device, as exemplified by powering an Amazon Alexa skill from the same content that drives your website.

This is the true promise of the tools you are introduced to in this book they're capable of so much more than websites. This API-enabled constellation of microservices, structured content, and serverless computing also supports a higher goal of content velocity. Forward-thinking teams are embracing the fact that great websites are just the first step towards running unified content projects. They're ushering in a new way of working where product and marketing content and workflows converge around a single source of truth, and shipping amazing omnichannel experiences is no longer a pipedream.

Since you are reading this book, you're probably a person who expects more, challenges the status quo, and the one who explores the bleeding edge. Together we are creating a paradigm shift, not only on how the web is built, but in the approach we take to content, and to building digital experiences at large.

See you on the other side...

Magnus Kongsli Hillestad

CEO @ Sanity.io
