About this plugin
JAMStackPress – Power-up you WordPress backend
This plugin extends the WP-JSON API by adding a new useful set of fields to the WP-JSON API response, this new set of fields will make your front-end development easier. JAMStackPress also applies some optional filters
to the content in order to make it front-end ready (no need to make replacements or ad image width and height attrs at front-end level). Finally we also adds to more endpoints to the WP-JSON API (contact form and sitemap) very useful!
We think about the possible scenarios of development for your static website, so in other words, we’ll try to make your life easier, so that you only think about developing your decoupled front-end.

Content filters & Deploy tools
Content filters
– Replace your WordPress base URL with the front-end URL defined in the plugin settings.
– Add image width and height attributes to every image placed at the content.
– Add _blank target to every external link at the content.
Deploy tools
