SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. You’ve been trying to make websites easier for quite a while. Tell us a little bit about your background and what motivates you about Netlify.
Topic 2 - Let’s start by talking about how the web is consumed these days; what’s broken, and how are you trying to make it better?
Topic 3 - What is Jamstack? How much is language, how much is frameworks, how much is architecture, and how much is a different way to think about Websites/Content/CMS?
Topic 4 - So we have this website content distributed out to the CDN, how to 3rd-party APIs interact with the system (e.g. Stripe, Agolia, Twilio, AWS Lambda, etc.)?
Topic 5 - CDN’s just used to serve content, and now they are running code at the edge. How do those interactions work?
Topic 6 - You recently wrote that we might be hitting an inflection point for Websites/CMS’. Is that just a natural evolution of the distributed internet, or has anything in 2020 accelerated that?
