WordPress Versus Jamstack

Welcome to a new buzzword: “Jamstack”, which stands for “JavaScript, APIs and HTML Markup”. Or, in other words, websites made up of static pages, with all the dynamism implemented by JavaScript running on the browser. Hmm, maybe not quite all--that “APIs” part does still imply server-side dynamism of some sort. Seems the founder of WordPress is less than keen on the idea. WordPress, of course, is built very heavily around PHP code doing dynamic things (like reading and writing databases) server-side. Maybe the difference between the two is more one of degree and centralization rather than anything hard-and-fast. <https://www.theregister.com/2020/10/13/wordpress_matt_vs_netlify_matt/>
