    JSLint, The JavaScript Code Quality and Coverage Tool

  • Programmers of classical languages hate JavaScript because it's prototype-based, dynamic and weakly typed (among other complaints). It's also the number one most in-demand programming language in 2022 according to a number of independent surveys. JSLint can help you write better JavaScript and JSMin can minify your code before deployment. These tools were created by Douglas Crockford. I would recommend his books JavaScript: The Good Parts for programmers coming to JavaScript for the first time, and How JavaScript Works for experienced JavaScript programmers.

  • Gatsby

    The best React-based framework with performance, scalability and security built in.

  • Markdown is increasingly being used for software documentation, but you'll also find it used in static site generators (SSGs) such as Hugo and Gatsby. SSGs combine Markdown with templates to make it easy to spin up a website with minimal effort. They integrate with headless content management system (CMS) providers such Forestry and automated deployment solutions such as Netlify that connect to cloud source repositories such as GitHub.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.

    The official Jamstack site

  • The J in Jamstack stands for JavaScript. If you try running modern applications on a 12-year-old computer, you'll find most of them run just fine. The exception is the browser. Even with a wired connection, many web pages load at a crawl. The reason for this is twofold. Those web pages have become full-blown applications, and they are written in an interpreted language (JavaScript) that requires a lot of processing power to run at an acceptable speed.

  • Hugo

    The world’s fastest framework for building websites.
