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.

@ianfeather @paulrobertlloyd @eleven_ty One of the reasons I went that way was also the ability to keep everything on JS rather than messing with ruby. Which for me was a big simplification.

@ianfeather Depending on how exotic you have gotten with your Jekyll site, I've found it a pretty straightforward journey.

@paulrobertlloyd wrote some useful thoughts on this some time ago which is still worth a read.

The fact that @eleven_ty supports Liquid helps.

I love this post from @mojombo. It captures so much of my own feelings and enthusiasm for building for the web this way.

Very happy that he’s now on the board at @Netlify! https://twitter.com/Chr_Bach/status/1235254636358938624

@DasSurma @Jack_Franklin @jaffathecake Yeah of course.
And I also understand exactly how VC funding works and is paid directly to me.

All good.
I might even spring for crisps.

Feeling really rather smitten with the gorgeous iconography in the new JAMstack page on the @Netlify site.

(And there is really good info there to boot!)

@bitandbang @seldo ...on the other hand, the term can be confusing if closely scrutinised. (You don’t *have* to use JS or APIs, and “stack” is a nod to the runtime moving from server to the browser with JS).

Naming things is so hard, but having a name helped to point at a set of useful patterns.

@bitandbang @seldo Yeah I can see this. On one hand, the term JAMstack helped me describe an approach to big brand clients who previously reacted badly to “serving everything as static assets and using JS and APIs with PE to enhance where needed”. That was cumbersome and had loaded language...
