They can be integrated with those things.
But how many developers do you know outside of your own work team who know how to install an AWS Lambda function?
I've been developing a long time and I have Lambda functions in production but the entire process makes me want to bash my head against the wall to the point of unconsciousness.
The idea that we can write off wordpress as bad in one breath and then recommend a "static" site system which is a bunch of HTML pages with a set of specific third party hosting dependencies has always struck me as interesting. JAMstack is a manifesto for dependency on subscription microservice providers.
- indigodaddy 5y agoSure, it almost makes you wonder when people go through all those hoops, why not just write up a bit of php just for the email/form or whatever minimal dynamic content you need..
- seanwilson 5y agoAnother way to look at it: why would you want to maintain and secure a PHP stack just to receive an email on a simple HTML page? Just use a simple HTML form service for this, upload your page to something like Netlify or GitHub Pages, and outsource the complexity.
- indigodaddy 5y agoYes I believe this approach has merit too and fits many use cases and certain skill levels
