Algolia launches Jamstack integration for Netlify

Algolia, a leading search and discovery solution, is launching its Jamstack integration for Netlify, pioneer of the modern Jamstack web architecture, enabling developers to productively build and launch Jamstack-based websites and search experiences powered by Algolia’s Search API.

The Jamstack, a developer-driven architecture for modern web development, helps developers launch websites faster with more productive development and deployment cycles.

Now, with Algolia’s Search API available as a plugin for Netlify, this simplicity is extended even further, providing development teams the building blocks to create a fast, relevant search experience, according to the vendor.

Once a user installs the plugin on their Netlify site, the Algolia Crawler extracts structured data from every page any time a change occurs and indexes the content into Algolia to power the website’s search bar.

Algolia hosts and maintains the index in the cloud, allowing developers to build highly-tailored front-end experiences using one of several pre-built UI libraries.

The Algolia Crawler plugin can be used for a wide variety of industries—from media to technology—for various use cases, including site search with federated search, filtering, and faceting; documentation search; and customer self-service and support.

“The rising prominence of Jamstack reflects the growing need to prioritize developer experiences with faster, less expensive performance, and it has been exciting to watch its growth,” said Sylvain Utard, VP of engineering at Algolia. “Algolia fits perfectly into Jamstack applications, providing API clients for indexing, configuring, and searching data. On top of that, we make it easier for developers on the front-end by offering UI libraries with JavaScript, as well as other popular tools such as React, Vue.js, and Angular.”
