Still trying to find a good image optimisation pipeline for @astro that has good support for being used in framework components and can work with arbitrary paths (as in load content from variables). `astro-imagetools` is alright, but it doesn't seem to be actively maintained anymore and does a little too much. 🤔

It's the one thing I really miss from #Gridsome. 😅

Maybe I should try building something on top of the built-in asset system in v3. 🤔

Changed https://www.pythonkitchen.com from a #wordpress site to a #jamstack site powered by pypi's jamstack

After 10+ years of building my personal website with Jekyll, I took the leap and wrote my own static site generator based on makesite.py. It's great to work in the Python ecosystem now. I never got the hang of proper Gem-management, so updating Jekyll was always a bit of a chore.
I also updated the design, following the guidelines from https://brutalist-web.design/ by @davetron5000.

When a blog post is then loaded in the browser, download the index as well and use it to fetch the replies for that blog post from Mastodon.

For optimisation and depending on the frequency of new blog posts, you could split the index into yearly/monthly/weekly chunks, so not too much unnecessary information has to be downloaded for any given post—I guess you could even store one post ID per file, but that seems a bit like premature optimisation. 😅

What do you think? 🤔

I’d like to have a set of easy to manage, understandable scripts and git hooks that can replicate what Netlify and their ilk do: atomic builds triggered by git commits, roll-back ability, up-time management, “server less” functions would be nice.

Is there anything like this I can drop onto a VPS or self-host Linux box? Writing it all from scratch is… not great (I’ve been playing with it for one site that has a bit of a server less backend)

2/2

#WebDev #netlify #JAMStack

Coming across the kerfuffle of “Is #Jamstack dead?” today and it makes me a bit nervous to have invested in putting various sites, both personal and professional, onto Netlify. I get that they’re simple to migrate, they’re just built HTML after all, but to where? Another company that offers free git triggered Node pre-built sites that will eventually pivot to enterprise?
What I really want is a suite of tools, a suite of best practice code utilities, that will allow me to get self-host.
1/x

Sure, #jamstack is dead because of nonsense like Gatsby and corporate hype.

However #StaticSiteGenerators will always be a thing.

It’s only #Jamstack if it comes from the… * checks notes * …wait, no, it’s all corporate marketing bullshit.

Are there any #React devs out there who have deployed to #AzureStaticWebApps?

I’m looking to get a feel for how to think about cost since it scales with bandwidth. I would assume that bundle size/caching becomes a bigger concern given the pricing model. Is it trivial to achieve scalable costs or did you find your costs ballooning compared to a more traditional deployment model?

#FrontEndDev #Azure #Jamstack

(2/2) that allowed me to easily craft pages that use microformats and also validate if the whole thing is compliant, correct etc. Plus the right split between components that can be fully static vs those that require a server, essentially a "headless" setup: I have a rich editor with some visual niceties, but then most of it gets compiled to a static site following the #jamstack philosophy.

Currently in the process of migrating a pretty big multi-language #Gridsome site to #Astro. So far I've got page generation with localised slugs done and almost ported over the default layout component. 💪

Kind of crazy to go back to code from three, four years ago and reevaluate it. 🤣 At least my past self did an okay job keeping things clean and understandable for my now self. 👌

#webdev #jamstack

The demise of #Jamstack and #Netlify as an indie-first, "static site" hosting company feels like an end of an era. But why did it have to happen like this? Where did things go wrong? And which companies can #WebDev folks turn to for streamlined, pragmatic web hosting and architecture?

Here's my take on it, serving as a reply of sorts to @remotesynth's excellent coverage of the topic:

https://www.spicyweb.dev/farewell-jamstack/

Parece ser que el termino Jamstack, y la comunidad principal, a muerto. Lo cual no quita que existan desarrolladores, herramientas o proyectos.

New book arrived! Eleventy by Example, by @brob ☺️

Love me some #11ty, and this will be my first physical book for the tool. I’m excited to read through it and better my knowledge.

Comes with a free PDF too looking at the back 🧐 that’s neat and will come in handy for following along with some of the projects.

Dear #webDev

Who are your favorite #Web #educators and #developers who have made the switch to the #Fediverse? People who support #diversity and #openness in the #web community, and aren't just chasing engagement for the sake of their ego?

I want to #boost them!!!

@bobmonsour Thank you for including my #Jamstack post in your issue 12 of your #11ty newsletter! One question, it mentions it was posted on June 30th, 2023, but a lot of the posts (including mine), were posted after that date. Guessing the publish date might be incorrect 🙂

Every successful project needs goals and requirements. For my #BlogOnABudget series, I set up a short list of goals and requirements that, if met, would generally mean that the project was a success. I am sharing that list below:

I have started a new "Blog on a Budget" series where I will discuss how I created my personal blog using #AWS free tier #cloud services, #Jamstack, #IaC, and #GitOps. The series is just getting started, but figured I would share:
