In the words of Wes Bos, "don't listen to them"? Just kidding, we are big fans of Wes "Barracuda" Bos and Scott "El Toro Loco" Tolinski, who have taught hundreds of thousands of developers to code and share the same passion we have for helping JavaScript developers learn and deploy JAMstack sites and apps! To quote Scott: "Stop faffing about trying to decide where to host your site and host with the easiest platform on the planet, Netlify !" We couldn't agree more.
