Okay, so, considering how much I love this kind of development, it’s kind of embarrassing that I had no idea that it was a thing. Watching this talk by Chris Coyier is what made me aware of it. Since then I’ve taken every chance possible to ditch back end development and build websites using the JAMstack.

So far I’ve used static site generator Eleventy for a project at work. I also didn’t even realize that I was familiar with a great tool to push static websites live: Surge. Most recently I’m rebuilding my portfolio (this blog right here!!!) using Hexo.

If you’re interested in learning more about serverless web development, Power of Serverless is my go-to resource.
