    The official Jamstack site

  • I think I'm a little confused as to what differentiates "JAMStack" from modern decoupled architectures. My website starts up a Go web server and then serves the output of Nuxt. The backend was primarily generated using an OpenAPI generator and uses decentralized auth (JWT/JWE). The backend seems to align to what https://jamstack.org calls a "headless CMS" other than the fact that the editor is built into the frontend in the same decoupled fashion.

    One thing I'm not too sure on is, can a frontend served from a CDN do SSR? It became pretty apparent over the course of developing my blog that hybrid CSR and SSR was optimal.

  • wp-graphql

    :rocket: GraphQL API for WordPress

  • It's important to know that WordPress can be used as a headless CMS. There is active work in that area with plugins like WPGraphQL[0] and frontend frameworks like Faust.js[1].
