But that's not all: you can learn hands-on how to build your first JAM Stack site with Octane and Empress at his EmberConf workshop [**Build and Publish Your Own empress-blog Template**](https://emberconf.com/#/schedule/pre-conf_build-and-publish-your-own-%60empress-blog%60-template). + +In an exclusive interview with The Ember Times, Chris shares with us, how popular the JAM stack is and why it is so useful for building modern websites in 2020: + +> […] My belief is that most Ember developers are already using JAM Stack concepts. It’s not a binary thing, it’s not β€œyou use the JAM stack” or β€œyou don’t”. Instead you can make your apps more JAM and the question of when you want to do it is answered by when you need it. If you need good SEO, or if you need faster start times, you might want to look at some of the JAM technologies. + +What will our experience building JAM stack websites with Octane be like?

If you had to teach somebody everything from the ground all the way up to getting it deployed, it would take much longer and it would be much more difficult.
