🛠 Tools & Tech
- Visual Studio Code
- Terminal
- Github

Setting up Jamstack app
Create an empty folder (i.e. jamstack-registration-form)
$ mkdir FOLDER_NAME
Setting up jamstack app (make sure you are running node 10 and above)
$ yarn init -y
Now create a folder called src
$ mkdir src
Create index.html file within src folder which contains registration form.
