I haven't had the chance to follow the instructions in this post (I'm still playing with Fastpages, which is now working for me - I'll be posting a follow-up soon) but what's happening here is a really good indication of how modern web design is progressing. A JAMstack, recall, is a site built with Javascript, APIs and Markup. Typically this build process is automated using a static site generator like Jekyll (which is what the Fastpages site uses). What Sourcebit does is to pull the data from the source, trsnaform it as needed, and make it available for use by the static site generator. In the demo example, the data source is a Contentful site, and the static site generator is Hugo.
