Netlify is acquiring one of its main competitors, the Jamstack framework and platform company Gatsby. “The future of the web is composable architectures,” stated Biilmann in the press release, which cited Gatsby’s Valhalla Content Hub platform for enterprise developers as an example. Netlify also confirmed that the Gatsby web framework will “remain open source for all developers to use.”

He noted that Gatsby tried to do a similar thing to Vercel, in creating a commercial company around its open source framework.

Unlike Gatsby, Netlify has done a great job of making its platform understandable to developers — despite the somewhat vague buzzword it coined, “Jamstack.”
