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.

@TrentWalton @jacobcollier Causally flicking a grammy as a percussion instrument is the ultimate low-key swagger. Too good.

@snookca It's how they manage all the content and inventory on Amazon.

Well, not really.

Here's this earlier example of using @trello as a simple CMS by @carlymho.

I like it! A slightly different angle on the API but very much the same concept.

@KaraAJC @carlymho Ooh I've missed that. I should seek it out.

Not too surprised that there is some prior art here. It's a nice API to explore and and easy one to traverse. I'm aware that there is a @GatsbyJS plugin to scoop up @trello data too.

I love this.

@saschanuissl @Netlify @trello Heh. Yeah it totally depends on the use case. There are lots of small business sites which could use this nicely. And lots of more complex sites that this would not scale for.

Still, it demos a decoupled model quite nicely.

@GrowthDesk @trello @css @swyx Cool! Yeah I've used Google Sheets for things in a similar way too. But I far prefer traversing the json from a @trello board to wresting with the Google Sheets API.

And the tool maps nicely to managing blobs of simple content too.

It was fun using @trello as a simple content tool for a website.

Some details and an example you can play with here on the @css article.

@ben_howdle @Netlify @eleven_ty This should create the local proxy for you automagically and give you a local url (probably on port 8888) which give you access to the generated site and the serverless functions.

@ben_howdle @Netlify Hey Ben 👋

I use @eleven_ty Eleventy with @Netlify Functions quite a bit. the latest version of Netlify Dev (installed with Netlify CLI) should take care of this for you. I have a little demo repo which should do exactly what you are looking for.

@AndyDavies @Netlify I'm not close to that so I'm not sure, but I can enquire. Not
that I'm aware...
