@richardme If you are familiar with React js then I would recommend you to start with GatsbyJs : https://gatsbyjs.org
When using a github public repo, How can I hide my firebase config?
@sotayamashita sorry that I didn't see this request sooner. My name is Perry and I'm the Community Manager at Netlify. I've just edited the link to the URL you have provided. I'll be around in this space more from now on, you can also reach me @ community@netlify.com for questions/info regarding Jamstack Meetups! :D
@amincharoliya Not sure I can directly help you with that, but just so you know, if it is truly private data such as an account/API key or something like that, you normally shouldn't have it in your repo at all, public or otherwise.
hi all. I'm trying to use strapi with graphql on heroku. indeed, strapi is working fine, but when it comes to the content-type-builder and content-manager I run into unspecified errors (I can't create a new content type and create data for it). In the related tutorial on how to set it up, it is suggested to use the mLab plugin for database configuration, but I don't do that (I configure my mlab db connection manually). anybody thinks my issue is related to that? furthermore the same strapi instance is running without any errors locally with the same database setup.
@pmlopes Maybe I'm not understanding your question correctly, so excuse me and elaborate to me a bit more. I would look at a couple of things that you need to have a working knowledge of the following: GraphQL, YAML, Node.JS/Express.JS, serverless/AWS Lambda functions, DJango/Python, and Go. I'd also look at Google's PWA docs and better uncerstand service workers. Netlify's docs will probably give you more in depth on th backend as much as Google.They all can be involved in the backend. GraphQL has a different JSON-esque format as it pertains to it's schema. I've seen a few things in CSV. A bit more things in YAML. I just don't know what you are looking to do. I hope that I answered you question somewhat.
My question was more about focusing on backend / api development. Given that jamstack advocates using PWA apps, CDN for the static resources, if I'm producing APIs to be consumed by these apps, I assume that any json based api / graphql should be OK, but do you have guidelines for say for example, pagination of results using the HTTP range header vs query parameters... so my quite broad question was if you have recommendations for backend or is it just not the scope from jamstack at all...
@pmlopes The JAMstack is driven by api's so its definitely in the scope. Since we aren't generating pages server side they are pretty much the lifeblood of any JAMstack app. Any json response should be fine, but I think the community currently favors GraphQL over rest, so take that into consideration. As far as pagination, and the other things, they should follow the long established traditional best practices of API design.
Also this is my hobby project. I don't want to pay too much for beginning...
Hello! I have a quick question.
Intro
I’m running a static site on Netlify (with HugoCMS). It is a blog where I will write articles and I want to be able to read the number of subscribers from social network (facebook, twitter, youtube…).
Question
How can I get this data (I guess only option is using their APIs) and how can I display that info in my site (Can I do it without using a backend?)
If I want to use Gatsby +Headless WordPress then How my project will setup on Netlify?
Do I need different server to host the Wordpress?
I think the last example
Adaptive Programmer seems to be gone now... (https://jamstack.org/examples/)
Getting forwarded to a parked domain. 🤔
Would anyone else be able to confirm?
Would anyone else be able to confirm?
@soulaimanassikiou Have you considered using Netlify CMS functions (https://www.netlify.com/docs/functions/)?
@yonezawas_gitlab How about FaunaDB (https://fauna.com)?I haven't used it myself, but seen it in a few tutorials/examples.
@Idosun_twitter Perhaps JSON Web Tokens might do this for you.(https://www.netlify.com/docs/visitor-access-control/#role-based-access-controls-with-jwt-tokens)
Hello guys ! I need advice for choosing an Open Source self hosted headless CMS, we are planning to build a website similar to : https://www.bestproducts.com/. I've already seen some interesting CMS, like Strapi, Cockpit or Directus. Do you have any advices you can share ? Thank you
Hi @arzafran we are working on refining this process, but for now, you should get started by emailing community@netlify.com I'm the community manager and Netlify and I'll talk through this with you. Be sure to mention where you live :)
Hi all, I'm working for an education company in Beijing, and I'm trying to solve a problem about student data. Currently all scheduling and student data is handled through a complex series of linked Google spreadsheets, and I'm thinking it wouldn't be too hard to roll out some sort of web app to interact with the data (almost anything would be better than spreadsheets). My question is, what would be a "Jamstack-y" way to store all that data? I know the traditional, straightforward way would be just to stick it in a database. I have some experience setting up a simple blog with hugo (you can see it at josleyn.com), but I don't quite see how it might work for large numbers of students. Does anyone have any suggestions to offer?
