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.

@jgarber @Netlify There are annual payment options for teams... but it's no more expensive if you just pay monthly.

@jgarber @Netlify Sadly not at the moment @jgarber. That's not exposed through the admin UI. The support team will happily do it for you though if you get in touch.

Send them a message via https://www.netlify.com/support and they'll be able to help

"URLs are the single greatest feature of the web" – says @chriscoyier.

Yes indeed.

A few people have asked me what I did to make this so fast.

The answer is: nothing.
I just didn't add anything to make it slow.

I kept it simple.
The pages are pre-rendered.
The CSS is inlined.
I didn't add unnecessary javascript.
The work was done before you got there.

I wasn't interested in this game at all.
But now, I see that I must have it.

@jamstatic_fr @dhh @IFTTT @Netlify That's what I'd like to do. But this was in response to the anxiety being felt by those with content that they've placed on Medium already.

And it's a nice illustration of how simple it can be to bootstrap a #JAMstack site which generates posts.

@zachleat I prefer the latter to be honest. But I'm also keen on ways to liberate my content from any silos I may have accidentally sent posted it into!

Either way, generating a site like this was rather simple and fun!

@ryanfiller_ @brob @gatsbyjs @Netlify Thanks Ryan! Keen to see where this ends up. Out of curiosity, without clearing the build cache, do the builds fail or just appear to not update on the browser after the deploy?

@brob @gatsbyjs @Netlify You bet!

I'm a touch baffled by @ryanfiller_'s first tweet in this thread. Not sure why a manual build-cache purge should be necessary. That should happen automatically if the deps need updating.

Would be interested on the results of any explorations.

Triggered a little by this from @dhh, I had a very quick play with generating a site from a Medium RSS feed.

https://rss-jamstack.netlify.com/

Modern SSGs on the #JAMstack make this a joy! 🤗

I'll keep it up-to-date by having @ifttt ping a @Netlify deploy hook whenever the feed changes. https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1037398155879309312

@brob What I'm seeing seems to be @gatsbyjs config/code rather than anything @Netlify specific. Even the link in the build logs is to Gatsby Docs for troubleshooting
One tip (a bit further down the line) is to not use the Netlify post-processing optimisation. Gatsby handles it for you.

@gaddafirusli @Netlify Well, I can't disagree with that! 😜

Then again, if the biggest lock-in is the potential headache of switching DNS some time in the future ...that feels like the most open lock available! 🤓

@gaddafirusli @Netlify That's one of the advantages of static sites. As long as you can generate them yourself (which will be part of your dev process anyway) then you have greater portability for a future move if you need.

Swooning rather deeply at @eleven_ty once again.

Data files can now include executable JavaScript, so you can execute code to fetch data at build time

@siwalik @Netlify Happily not.

Since any sites that you deploy on @Netlify are #JAMstack sites which are able to be served directly from our global CDN, there is no server to put to sleep. The assets are cached and served from the edge of the CDN without you needing to manage that yourself.

I got addicted, and now I have a site that I deploy every single minute!
