  1. Webpack is a module bundler. Its main purpose is to bundle JavaScript files for usage in a browser, yet it is also capable of transforming, bundling, or packaging just about any resource or asset.

    JAMStack stands for JavaScript, API's & Markup. JAMStack is designed to be very fast since it uses pre-rendering, maintainable and scalable. Of course, this doesn't mean you have to write your whole website in HTML, CSS & JavaScript, but you'll need to use a bundler like Webpack or similar. NuxtJS and NextJS are common JavaScript frameworks used for static site generation.

    Vercel is the platform for frontend developers, providing the speed and reliability innovators need to create at the moment of inspiration.
    Before Netlify, I used elianvancutsem.github.io with Github Pages. It also has it's advantages and features, but Netlify is much more sophisticated. If you want, you can also attach your own domain name to Github Pages, Netlify or Vercel (although Vercel only offers this on a paid plan). One downside of Github pages is that you've got to deploy a branch. So you'll need a dedicated branch with the compiled version of your site there, whereas Netlify and Vercel build on their systems and deploy from there.

  6. Build, deploy and host your static site or app with a drag and drop interface and automatic delpoys from GitHub or Bitbucket
    Finding a good host for the right price can sometimes be a pain in the ass. I recently discovered Netlify and started using it for my own website and blog. Netlify has great integration with GitHub and it's own (simple) CI/CD system.

  8. Automated dependency updates for your Ruby, Python, JavaScript, PHP, .NET, Go, Elixir, Rust, Java and Elm.
    One of the features I use a lot on Netlify is the deploy preview. Every time a pull-request is made on your main branch, Netlify will build a merge of the two branches and deploy a preview for you to approve on something like https://deploy-preview-57--elianvancutsem.netlify.app/. This also counts as a check on GitHub, so if the build fails, the pull request will fail that check. This feature really comes in handy in combination with something like Dependabot.
