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.

A little more detail on how I used the #JAMstack with #serverless functions via @Netlify to make a URL Shortener you can host on your own domain.

@alexdbauer @andyshora @Netlify I like @GoHugoIO. A great developer experience, although I still feel like I have a lot to learn about Go templates

@alexdbauer @andyshora @Netlify Yay! Out of curiosity, what SSG did you settle on?

@stefanhoth @DKundel @gatsbyjs @Netlify Yep, it's based on that same model, but while GHPages only supports Jekyll (without plugins), Netlify lets you use any SSG with whatever logic and code you like when the build runs.

Plus you get on-click https, instant rollbacks & other nice things.

@housecor @DavidWells @Netlify @biilmann It's nice and easy to get started, but if you wanted a little example project to clone and experiment with, there's this -

“F/E devs are now moving into B/E space with things like approachable functions & microservices.

...on the other hand, DevOps is building APIs instead of traditional monolithic backends. Two ends so far apart once upon a time, now meeting in the middle”

@devLLop @ShopTalkShow I'm pretty sure that I stole that expression from @psd years and years ago. I use it because I generally want to be more like him.

@brendandawes @chriscoyier @Netlify @ShopTalkShow Thanks Brendan! Yeah, the branch and preview builds (from pull requests) are rather lovely.

And if you just can't get enough of my silky smooth jazz voice, I talk a little more about some of this with @una and @chrisdhanaraj

I had really rather a lot of fun making this little URL shortener thing.

Made possible by the building blocks of Form Handling, Lambda Functions Build Automation and CDN redirect control in @Netlify.
