Why is the JAMstack a good solution for such an announcement page?
In the current public health crisis, existing content management systems (CMSes) can easily
be overloaded and slow when lots of visitors continuously reload your website.
Ease of production and reliability. JAMstack websites go up quickly, and they scale with your project as it grows. They’re also reliable — even in these troubled times. Content and websites are only updated when you make changes, and then stored in global content delivery networks (CDN) for distribution. You can rest assured that your critical content is delivered.
Can I customize this to my needs?
Yes, you can use the template as is, or customize it so that it works best for you. If you do customize the template, it would be helpful for others if you share it with the community on GitHub.
Please note that Contentful, Gatsby and Netlify only provide the template and hosting. We can’t do custom development for users.
Can I use this without any development resources?
Although this customizable template makes building a website far more quickly, it’s still best to have a developer set it up. Don’t have a developer on hand? You can request help from our volunteer network of developers and agencies.
