@mbleigh @slightlylate @jensimmons But it's a fair comment. The term "static site generator" doesn't really describe all the things that these sometimes bundle in.
@mbleigh @slightlylate @jensimmons It's common now for SSGs to roll in a JS framework too. Which can be great, but can also mean you need to know what that does and how so you don't mishandle it and cause yourself problems.
@jensimmons - It allows a variety of templating tools
- It feels logical & organised
- It has a small technology footprint (so is easy to install)
- I can extend it with JS (which I understand)
And a biggie for me...
- It only outputs what you ask. No frameworks or unexpected JS magic.

@ludobourgoin @Netlify Yep. You can make your own page for the thank you message. And tell @Netlify to send people to that by specifying it as the "action" property of your form html element.
@trysmudford @GoHugoIO Yeah! Not only does this bring an update to the Linux distro, but it also adds the ability to select the build image used by the build bots for each of your sites.
Making future distro rollouts far easier.
Double win!

By crikey, that @bruised_blood is a talented chap! I'm currently soaking up all the beautiful pixels in his glorious portfolio, please don't disturb me from my happy place. https://twitter.com/bruised_blood/status/1106188151599648768
@_munter_ @SaraSoueidan Oh, that's nice.
This approach also attempts to address the need to perform those image transformations at build time, which can slow builds down of you have many many images.

@_munter_ @SaraSoueidan Assetgraph did this too? I might misunderstand. How would it do these on-the-fly transformations directly on the CDN at request time?
That's mostly what I'm demonstrating here. The macro for html generation is a pretty common utility in SSGs, right?

@SaraSoueidan You bet.
The @eleven_ty part is just a helper to output the markup for the picture element. @GoHugoIO could do that bit too.
@Netlify Large Media gives you sensible version control of this large source image assets and automatic asset transformation on-the-fly.

@SaraSoueidan Pssst. You might be there already.

@StuRobson @eleven_ty @frctl 🤔 Wondering what in my little boilerplate project might demand that.
For what it's worth, I install node and npm via nvm to make my life a little easier if I need to jump around to different versions on different projects.

I made a little example of using @Netlify's new image transformation service along with a shortcode in @eleven_ty (but you could use any SSG in this way) to generate the markup and assets for responsive images using the <picture> element.

@johnlindquist @Netlify I love this too. And I use it a lot for quick-starting projects.
You can even feed it more configuration to set up more of the environmental pieces if you need to.
Super handy if you have a list of project boilerplates, like you might have at an agency.

@tudor_prodan @healves82 @smakosh @gatsbyjs @GraphQL @HasuraHQ @Netlify If the friction in deploying is low, and your confidence in automated deploys is high, this model works really nicely. It means your site can stay fresh without you needing to manage a server to keep it alive.
My own site redeploys every time I tweet.

Prepare for... HawkStack™
I think we should use whichever term makes it easiest to communicate what the architecture is. #JAMstack has been getting more broadly understood, but I've also heard:
- StaticFirst
- Pre-rendered
- ShortStack
& more!

@qlex_ @Netlify Most odd. 🤔
