I recently came across sanity.io as a jamstack backend. Generous free offering. Rather than the spreadsheet model, you define your schema and get a nice CMS interface generated that you host as a static page

Thank you for sharing. Looks really nice. I'm always on the lookout for Jamstack backends. The spreadsheet model is great, though, because it's that much more immediately familiar for non-tech people who are otherwise acquainted with spreadsheets. Though I was surprised how much work it was to get convey the whole relational modeling thing. In that sense, a CMS interface might have been better.
