TIL my site is a JAMStack site.
10 September 2021
Today I learned that my site which has been basically the same since
2016 is a JAMStack site. Although it was coined in 2015 by
Netlify, it seems to have become really popular in the past 2 years as a
term. I’m told it’s more of a theoretical framework than anything else.
JAMStack stands for JavaScript, APIs, and Markup.

Adding Search to My Static Blog Using AWS Lambda and SQLite
09 July 2021

so I can’t have any dynamic content on it. I recently resolved that by
creating a little tiny lambda function on AWS that queries a SQLite
database hosted on S3. Here I’ll walk you through how I created the
back-end for it, and in some later posts I’ll include details on
calculating the cost.

cover attribute in their front-matter.
