The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

@thebeebs @paulrobertlloyd @sallylait @eleven_ty @Netlify @fnproj It's new to me! Looks good though, so I'll poke around. Thanks Martin!

@lynchy010 Cool. Would be keen to hear how you get on if you do give @Netlify a try. Especially given your experience elsewhere which can be super helpful to us.

@lynchy010 @jgarber Totally agree. I'm uneasy with the idea that these are empty app shells + a bunch of JS. I think the term is intended to be much broader than that.

The trouble with "static" is that it tends to conjure images of the site's behavior more than of the way it is hosted on a CDN

@lynchy010 @jgarber Nice post.

Webserverless is a blog post title, not a new term... but I'm already squirming a little.

Working from home problem number 24:

This is Angel. While I work she is annoyed with me for using my time to do something other than stroke her fuzzy tummy.

@lynchy010 @jgarber Heh. I'd be a fool do muddy the waters by throwing yet another term for these things around. Oh, wait...

@jgarber Nope.

The J stands for JavaScript. (At build time or client-side to enrich the experience via progressive enhancement and APIs.)

#JAMstack tries to describe sites able to be served directly from a CDN. Perhaps try "website can work without my maintaining an application server"

A few have asked what the moderation flow looks like on this #jamstack comments system. You can see it demonstrated in a little video on the site, or better yet learn how to clone the project and try it yourself:

@paulrobertlloyd @sallylait @eleven_ty @Netlify You could certainly self host that piece. It's a function that formats requests between a couple of different APIs. Events on @Netlify can post to any URL.

The point of this example and stack is to save you from needing to host anything though, so it's twisting the model a bit.

@paulrobertlloyd @sallylait @eleven_ty @Netlify Are you happy using other functions as a service platforms? If so, that would be possible. Otherwise... let me think on it.

@sallylait @eleven_ty @SlackHQ @Netlify Thanks Sally!

It makes me outrageously smug to receive the notification of a new comment as a buzzing slack notification in my pocket, and then hit a button on that notification to redeploy the site with its new comment all while I'm out buying milk.

Rather pleased with the results of this approach which absorbs comments into the content of a site, rather than injecting them from a third party with JavaScript.

- @eleven_ty as a static site generator
- @SlackHQ for moderating comments
- @Netlify for CI/CD and form handling https://twitter.com/chriscoyier/status/988840783225778177

@chriscoyier For a peek at how the moderation flow goes, you can see a short video of the notifications going through @SlackHQ. But much more detail is in the post on @Real_CSS_Tricks

@RayGesualdo @Netlify There's no plan to support that just now.

@Netlify's integrated CI already caches your dependencies between builds so that they do not need to be reinstalled. They are only reinstalled if a change to your package.json is detected. This speeds up subsequent builds significantly.
