My latest obsession has been optimising webhook events from Ghost to Netlify. I needed a way to filter out large payloads sent to Netlify. Using @val.town as a webhook middleware, I can strip payloads and skip triggering builds for certain posts. jonathanyeong.com/writing/usin...

On a side note, I’m always impressed by how much work and innovation developers manage to squeeze into their blogs (I feel you! 😂).

I really like the narrative approach. It feels like you’re telling me that story over lunch 🙂 How often you make these changes and why you find this approach better than, for example, triggering the build manually? Putting my pragmatic hat on here. 😅

I find myself optimising my blogging for convenience. For example, I moved to a headless CMS so that I could publish on mobile. So doing anything manual is an anti goal for me. It’s 100% not needed. But it works for me!
