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.

@LucasTizma @daveaglick @TannerLD @Netlify This thread fills me up with a warm fuzzy feeling. Especially the timings.
Hoping that you find you can do all you need. Welcome!

@bitandbang @TheAndrewWyatt @auchenberg @TheLarkInn Agreed. Making the most of APIs, optimised & provided by specialists is a huge enabler - either client-side or server-side at build time, APIs can add functionality & enliven content.

Automated builds and rapid deploys triggered by events can now make static sites feel dymanic.

@TheAndrewWyatt @auchenberg @TheLarkInn @bitandbang One of this big things for me is just shifting attitudes. We often turn to Node, PHP, Python be default whenever we build something. Even if it is not best served by moving parts on infrastructure you have to secure, scale and maintain forever.

Does a blog really need a DB?

@TheAndrewWyatt @auchenberg @TheLarkInn @bitandbang It's a new label for mostly old technology. But the tooling and the mindset is different. With automation and careful thought "static" can do so much that we currently over engineer fragile, complex things to do.

+ Security, scale & perf are by default not hard fought to get

@DasSurma @notwaldorf @jaffathecake Let's be honest. It's a miracle that he doesn't just rub his body with mud and stick moss and ferns over his rude bits.

@igloo_si @Netlify Ha ha. That will teach me to get cocky!

In fairness the admin UI is not optimised to be used on mobile. Although it works, it's not where we expect most are configuration to take place.

@SaraSoueidan @Netlify There is no built-in form validation, but you can add your own client-side validations and submit via javascript if you like. You can also make use of an automated honeypot to cut down on spammers.

@sallylait @SaraSoueidan @Netlify It's simple yet surprisingly powerful. (I suppose that's what happens when you also add API access to features)

Happy to answer any questions if you run into limitations for your use case. but I suspect you'll be off and running in no time. It's alarmingly quick to set up!

@SaraSoueidan @Wufoo @Netlify Yep. You can set the submission notification to be an email, so you'll get an email summary of each one.

@SaraSoueidan @Wufoo To can get @Netlify to provide a back end for all of your forms. All posts to the forms can trigger notifications, are accessible via an API and can also trigger builds etc.

Shout if you need any help but the docs are pretty good.

@reszahid @gatsbyjs Nice thing about a #JAMstack build... if you find that @gatsbyjs works well for you, you won't need to be tied to any one hosting provider. You should be able to move it to whichever one you find suits your workflow and requirements best.
