AI toolRunning a website
The "Swiss army knife" of modern static websites (Jamstack): reliable publishing and automatic builds.
What it is
Running a website, publishing it and automatic builds.
Netlify presents itself as the "Swiss army knife" of Jamstack. It is less opinionated about which framework you use and works well with Gatsby, Hugo, Vue, Svelte and others. It stands out with built-in extras such as Netlify Forms and Netlify Identity, so developers of the visible part of a website (the frontend) can build a working app without managing a separate backend.
What it does
What it does
- Works with many frameworks (tools for building websites): Gatsby, Hugo, Vue, Svelte and more
- Built-in back end: forms (Netlify Forms) and login (Identity) without a separate backend
- Usage-based pricing with more generous data transfer limits
- Edge Functions and Background Functions for background tasks
- Automating builds, versions and the running of production apps
Good for
- Static websites, marketing websites and e-commerce frontends
- Frontend developers who do not want to manage a backend
- Projects across various frameworks
Not for
- Dynamic apps with Next.js, where Vercel is the clear choice
- Large volumes of video: we recommend specialised services
Our verdict
We use it for reliable publishing and management of web projects. For static and marketing websites it is the first choice thanks to more generous limits; for dynamic Next.js we reach for Vercel.
