Atomic Data as data provider in JAMstack CMS / static site generation
JAMstack is a way to manage websites, where you Serve static (HTML) files, probably using a CDN, and re-build these websites automatically when data changes. This helps makes apps fast and easy to manage. It often involves not managing a server.
Atomic Data could be really useful in this context:
- Atomic Commits make sure that all content is properly versioned. Here, it could be a far easier to use and lighter weight alternative to Git.
- The Atomic Data Browser provides an easy to use UI for admin purposes (write articles / content).
- The JAM tools are already there:
- @tomic/lib for Javascript
- atomic-server is the API
- @tomic/react is the Markup
We'll probably need some new tools / libraries / tutorials / templates for convincing people to use Atomic Data in a JAMstack app:
- Netlify integration?
- NEXT.js integration. I think this is already possible with
@tomic/react, so all that remains is writing a tutorial or boilerplate.
It would be cool if the docs.atomicdata.dev would be running using this stack.
