What kind of projects are not suitable for using Jamstack, and which projects or use cases benefit the most from Jamstack?
Bud Parr
Founder at the New Dynamic
I really believe in choosing the right tool for the job, and I don't have a problem if the job’s not right for my firm or if it's not right for the things that we build, then it should be built with another tool. We've had clients where they needed to be in some LAMP stack tool or monolithic tool for some reason or another -- business reasons or technological reasons. We've just said, “Goodbye.” All we do is Jamstack. There are plenty of use cases where the backend is integral to the frontend.
Now I think that that's getting even more blended. There's a lot more you can do with what are considered Jamstack technologies now. I think the use cases where you would say, “Oh, I need Drupal or WordPress” -- those might be business use cases where somebody has a preference for them, but the technological reason to use those tools I think has largely disappeared. My firm mostly does large content-heavy sites, product sites, corporate sites, some media sites and that sort of thing, and I think those are very well suited to Jamstack technologies.
