Watch Jamstack Hours #2 here.

We are organizing a series of Jamstack meetings where we will create a project together from scratch and deploy. 

We will build a web experience which is the FASTEST, THE MOST SECURE and most importantly has THE BEST DEVELOPER EXPERIENCE. 

We will use a headless CMS for dynamic content, deploy very easily on Netlify, create webhooks for synchronous content update and integrate with 3rd party tools for marketing like Mailchimp or google analytics.

Event Livestream: Jamstack Hours #1

Gatsby community has great starters that can suit your project’s purpose, here we will start with the most minimal project to see the structure. Then adapt an existing css connected starter. We will use tailwind for css, because it’s just AWESOME.

Event Livestream: Jamstack Hours #2

Gatsby works smoothly with almost all CMS services in the back-end. We will talk about the advantages and disadvantages for 3 main CMS choices. Attention: these comments will be based on purely tio’s experience for different projects. We love all the CMS, and yes wordpress is still great for some use cases.

Contentrain

The new git-based CMS Contentrain will join us to show the integration of their tool into the gatsby project we prepared in jamstack hours#1. 

22.06.22 #3 Deployment:

Deployment with gatsby is as easy as sharing your screen on a meeting. Ok maybe not that easy, but both netlify and gatsby cloud has a great flow connected with your git repository.

Your own server (maybe)

~ soon to be announced #4 Integrations with tools:

Having a website that is lightning fast and has a good performance means good conversions and happy users. In case you need to grow your audience and make a use out of this website you’ll need to use some of the industry’s best performing tools. Gatsby plugins are making this waaaay easier than setting up yourself. You can track any button on your website or send data to any back-end integration.
