JAMstack is an odd term. LAMP is a stack. It's Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP. JAM at most is a kind of stack, and a vague one. When using JavaScript to build web apps it's assumed markup will be involved. Perhaps including "Markup" implies SSR? I don't get it. JAM is a fun word though. Maybe that's why it took off, just like AJAX.

I do like Vercel, though.

I say JAMstack because saying "static sites" causes a lot of confusion. It's easy to hear static and think vanilla HTML with no backing data source. JAMstack, to me, is a better explanation for a static site generated by dynamic data.
