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.

Everyone, you can stop making things for the web now. The final piece of the puzzle has been put in place. Thanks for all your efforts, but the internet is now complete. https://twitter.com/Netlify/status/986296481031344130

@ChrisFerdinandi @saltcod That's generous. Happy to see a growing wealth of writings and resources on the subject. Exciting times ahead!

@ChrisFerdinandi @addyosmani Ha ha.

NOT trying to add another buzzword. It just encapsulated some thoughts as a result of a discussion.

Says @addyosmani at #smashingconf - "Improve your database performance to improve server response times and page performance."

Agreed. Wherever possible, I like to optimise the database completely out of my stack.

@smashingconf For those lovely people who joined me to look at @Netlify over lunch, the message in @TrentWalton's talk about 3rd party scripts would have been a *slam dunk* to include in our section about A/B testing. (Had we spent more than 3 mins introducing and deploying that)

Hoping my neck is strong enough to cope with the aggressive nodding in agreement which @TrentWalton's #smashingconf talk is triggering in me.

@smashingconf Coffee is happening, breakfast is happening, talks will be happening, and over lunch today, this is happening:

From zero to a deployed site using lots of Netlify's snazzy features.

Spaces limited, so grab a free ticket. #smashingconf https://twitter.com/Netlify/status/985947801472217088

@mikemak_es @benschwarz @contentful @prismicio @Netlify @awscloud FWIW, If you use a static site generator, Contentful needn't be pricey since you'd be consuming its content only for builds, and not serving the world via its API.

And you can get to AWS Lambda directly via Netlify Functions these days.

But yeah. What you said.

@notwaldorf @charis @MikeRiethmuller @Netlify Whichever it is... these are unisex American Apparel, so I'm using my initiative and giving an option of small or medium.

Also, I am slowly transitioning into a (terrible) tailor.

@AndyDavies @benschwarz @NetlifyCMS @contentful Either way, an SSG (whichever) can let you retain good control over development, while a decoupled or headless CMS can provide a focussed and empowering authoring experience without the noise of a CMS which lets authors tinker with layout.

Build automation glues it all together

@AndyDavies @benschwarz You rang?!

I strongly favor using a static site generator to give good control over f/e perf and give solid workflows and deployment options. For authors, git is a no go, but you can use it invisibly behind the scenes with @NetlifyCMS or use a #headless option like @contentful

@charis @jvhellemond @MikeRiethmuller @Netlify Wait... what kind of blackmail is happening here?

🧐

Sadly, not every paying customer gets a hoodie. You're thinking of The Gap (and even for them, it's a subset).

While the Netlify hoodies are not for sale, I can probably be bought.
