Uniform have just launched its new platform and a big part of that is Canvas. Canvas is a way to orchestrate the modern stack of micro-services and SaaS into a website or multiple websites.
It gives the software developer power to control the tech stack while at the same time giving a marketer or content designer the power to control what is eventually presented to the user.
EVERYONE has power 💪 what can go wrong 😁 I’ve been taking a look.
Hello everyone, this is a professional update giving a bit of background to what I’ve been involved with recently.
Feel free to get in touch if this is of any interest.
JAM Stack React and NextJS
JAM stands for JavaScript, APIs, Markup. It is a way of delivering websites which focus on simple HTML files which are enhanced by JavaScript and an API within the browser. I’ve been working in this format for a few years now, starting at Seccl Technology and then working at Nationwide with an enterprise CMS (Sitecore), Nextjs and the Uniform product.
Deploying JAMstack within an enterprise company comes with many
complications due to it’s scale. There is not only the large
number of pages to contend with, there are often restrictions
imposed on how we can deliver the solution.
This was the case at
Nationwide Building Society
where we delivered a new platform and a new JAMstack website. It
was great to be able to talk about our experience at
Uniform’s JAMstack for Sitecore virtual
conference. Rich James and I went
through our experience on Nationwide’s journey to Enterprise
JAMstack.
