What do you mean by “J-A-M”?

  1. J - Javascript - Any dynamic programming during the request/response cycle is handled by JavaScript, running entirely on the client.
  2. A - API’s - The frontend uses Javascript and APIs to talk to backend services. Be it SaaS, third-party services or custom-built.
  3. M - Markup, A critical piece, whether it’s your hand written HTML or the code that compiles down to the HTML, it's the first part you’re serving to the client

If you’re building a page and serving it with Django or PHP, it’s probably not a JAMstack app. If you host and serve a single HTML file from storage that constructs an app with Javascript, it sounds like a JAMstack app.
