This is what happens when you keep telling some dickhead that was born a millionaire how smart he is his entire life.

@ChrisFerdinandi Pretty great so far! It’s really more retrofitting my office to be able to quickly record demos and ideas, but I’m having tons of fun. Makes for a really great hobby that’s not related to web development 😂.

I really look forward to reading @ChrisFerdinandi 's daily email. Go subscribe here: gomakethings.com I just started building a small home music studio, so today's article is doubly relevant to me! 😀 gomakethings.com/coding-and-che…

@n8garrett @eleven_ty The docs site for that new design system is also built with @eleven_ty 😜 rivet.iu.edu

it’s shameless self promotion day folks may have missed that project you worked so hard on and shipped out months ago—share it again (without shame!) ⬇️

It’s a rainy day and everyone in my house is asleep so I’m gonna give this old buddy some new strings and a tune up. 🎸 instagr.am/p/CkV70laO6bW/

@WebC_omponents @eleven_ty Awesome, thank you for the reply! I wasn’t even thinking about the colon/dynamic attribute 🙃. I’ll dig into that next. I’m a super sloppy note taker so I may have got some stuff mixed up. I’ll go back and confirm. Thanks for the tips!

@levimcg @eleven_ty I would not have expected `<list-component heading="someData"></list-component>` to work! You’d need a colon to make it a dynamic attribute `<list-component :heading="someData"></list-component>`

I got a chance to tinker around with the @eleven_ty WebC plugin yesterday. There's a ton more to dig into, but I decided to write up my notes as a post. 11ty is already great and WebC feels like a huge upgrade. 😍 levimcg.com/blog/my-notes-…

@brob Awesome!

@levimcg Getting there!

Thinking about a live stream this afternoon. I really like this idea from @levimcg about using the GitHub API to attach PRs to a change log. Going to use Hygraph's remote source fields, maybe 11ty for the site. Would love to have a proof of concept done at the end of the stream

@brob For small stuff the GitHub API doesn’t require authentication which is great! We use the 11ty cache assets plugin to get the data and create the changelog on our site at build time based on PRs we label with the current version number. rivet.iu.edu/getting-starte…

What are your current favorite services or APIs that you connect up to a Jamstack site?

Gave my old bass a makeover today (after and before). I bought this guitar in 1997 with a few paychecks from first real job at Taco Bell in high school. I put a lot of miles on this thing in basements/garages/VFWs/coffee shops/bars over the years. It sti… instagr.am/p/Cg769dBOxEl/

Started watching @thebearfx tonight and I love it so much. Chicago, Italian beef— two of my favorite things. This show’s got it all! instagr.am/p/Cf5R7flNpe4/

Man, I can’t sleep and I’ve been doing a real deep dive on google images. Look at this photo of Ric Flair from the 80s! This was the future of ultimate fighting bros we deserved. Whooo! instagr.am/p/CfViRQsMHZM/

Back patio garden is really rippin’ this year 🤙🏻 instagr.am/p/CfPw-S4uTrw/

@ChrisFerdinandi That totally makes sense. Especially if you’re the only one working on the site. We have a handful of folks contributing, and just the other day ran into a case where one of us needed to downgrade a Hugo version, which is not straightforward at all 😂. Hugo is pretty great though

@ChrisFerdinandi I’ve got a production site running in each (11ty and Hugo) right now and I think you’re hitting the nail on the head. But, for me the advantage 11ty has is that it’s all node.js so working on the site is just one `npm install` instead of messing with homebrew or whatever for Hugo

It’s getting to be that time of year again. Look at this stalky little tomato boi! instagr.am/p/CcQP1pqujFs/

I finally got around to creating a Letterboxd account. I like a lot of cheesy, basic stuff and I've never really dove deep into film as an art form, but I'd like to start. I'd love to start following some folks. Send me links to your profiles, please! letterboxd.com/levimcg/

Pretty sure the digital sign at the strip mall down the road from me has been hacked by someone with a wicked dad joke game. “Young Amish farmers pay for new bridles with their…Bit Coin!” instagr.am/p/CTe7FILnZC6/

Nice little harvest from my tiny back patio garden. 🍅 At least enough to make some fresh sauce for pizza night tomorrow. instagr.am/p/CTIDLuoHXRD/
