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.

Found I had some weapons-grade mature cheddar in the fridge, so today for lunch I had a robust cheese board.

That’s fine, right?
It’s not weird?
Is it a bit weird?
I think it’s fine.
Is it weird?
It’s weird.

There are 6 code examples in this video about getting started with the JAMstack. You can explore (and deploy) the code for each of them, plus find some related resources on this little gist:

@_rndlph @smashingmag Thanks! I appreciate it. 😊

I certainly agree that there are plenty of projects where it is not the right fit. But I've been surprised by the diminishing number of those when truly exploring.

My best agency projects with big brands, came from challenging those assumptions.

@_rndlph @smashingmag There is an overhead to hosting and maintenance which can be reduced.

You're right that it's not new. But the web has matured, providing greater opportunities thanks to services and APIs and more powerful browsers. So the term tries to help convey that.

@_rndlph @smashingmag I think I'd challenge the view that it is rarely acceptable.

The majority of sites on the web don't need their views re-rendered on the fly for every request. Or need a database. Think of how many WordPress blogs exist that hit a database for every view, but change infrequently.

@smashingmag Hoping this explainer and examples I just posted with @freeCodeCamp might help with that!

@Trippy_Monk @smashingmag I think that’s a fairly common misconception. In fact the JAMstack can be anything from a single html file to a rich client-side app.

I just published a video on this. First half hour is explaining the model, then into examples of growing complexity.

@rishpein15 @Netlify @gatsbyjs @jekyllrb @GoHugoIO @nuxt_js @ScullyIO It's not for that.

You can run nodejs at build time as many site generators and build tools do.

And you can run nodejs in serverless functions to provide APIs for your sites if you need to.

I'd jump at any chance to hear @lesliecdubs speak about... well anything really. But what would *you* be interested in hearing about from her?

(You may know her from great dev work such as http://www.netlify.com and http://app.netlify.com) https://twitter.com/lesliecdubs/status/1234846130879500288

Working remotely, nobody can see you groan at their jokes. 😖

Unless they do.
And capture the evidence.

@Tzmanics cracks me up. And we work with some amazing people in the DX team and across the entire @Netlify company.

What if you joined us?!

@Mandy_Kerr I did that a little while ago and found an unfinished, unpublished rambly post. It was a post advocating for getting things done and remembering that "done is better than perfect".

Ashamed of myself and the thick irony, I published it just as it was.
