LAMP stack is open source...
- applecrazy 7y agoThe implication in the sentence is that LAMP is an old open-source stack, whereas Gatsby is new open-source
- MuffinFlavored 7y agoLinux - Gatsby doesn't run on Linux? Apache - Gatsby doesn't run behind a load balancer (apache/nginx) with proxy_pass? MySql - Gatsby doesn't persist data into a database (MySql/Postgres)? PHP - I'll give you that PHP is out and node.js is in for backend development.
- realityking 7y agoLinux - probably Apache/Nginx - some web server will be used, though much as likely something more lightweight than Apache. No proxy_pass needed since Gatsby just generates a bunch of files you need to serve MySQL - probably not unless married with a very complex backend PHP - yeah that’s out To understand Gatsby it’s crucial to understand that it’s using a significantly different architecture than traditional LAMP applications and monolithic CMSes
- manigandham 7y agoJust about every production Gatsby instance is either using static data source (list of markdown/json files) or a monolithic CMS on the backend via API. It's more of a modern frontend site framework rather than a true self-contained app.
- justinmeiners 7y agoAh, that would make more sense.
