In this stream I implemented a bunch of features on my website, including:

  • Serving all live site content from a dynamically created zipfile
  • Fixing a few bugs in site rebuilds resulting in the entire site 404ing
  • Adding the website version to the footer of every page next to the nix store path
  • An attempt to upgrade to Lume 0.19.2, which had to be backed out in favor of the current version due to issues with the new version
  • Moved a bunch of static assets to S3 to improve site build times

This VOD was recorded in 1080p as an experiment. I'm not sure if I'll continue to do this, but I wanted to try it out.
