Overview

The JAMstack, short for “JavaScript, APIs, and Markup,” has been making waves in the world of web development.
Building JAMstack applications removes the hassle of building out a backend from scratch, freeing you to focus on what really matters: your content.
In this course, you’ll learn how to build and deploy your own static Gatsby site that pulls external data from Contentful and then deploys to the web with Netlify. After the course, you’ll have all the knowledge you need to build a blog, marketing site, or portfolio with Gatsby. Just add content.
