Maybe I'm missing something, but how are these alternatives to Gridsome? These all appear to be headless CMSes, where Gridsome would be the front end accessing the CMS.

No you're absolutely right -- these are all headless CMSes, I did not actually complete the JAMstack, only the wrong piece -- I don't know what I was thinking, don't know what made me zoom in on CMSes so much, guess I think of them as more important than the front-end in a JAMstack.

As recompense, some lesser known options for the frontend part of the JAMstack that weren't mentioned in the original post:
