UmBootstrap UmBootstrap is an Umbraco Website Starter Kit using Bootstrap Templates and a comprehensive Component Library all available for you to use in your projects

2 years ago @umbraco.com introduced their block grid editor at the same time as #bootstrap enabled CSS grid. I've spent the last 2 years trying to convince .net developers how fantastic CSS grid is to work with. I even built a demo site but they still prefer flexbox 🤷‍♂️ umbootstrap.com

This is a great course, I done it last year and it's been really handy working with the new Umbraco back office. This is an incredible bargain. I definitely recommend it.

Very cool @sotirisf.bsky.social 😎

Let's be honest about why the SEO community coined the phrase GEO:
1. It sounds like SEO
2. It's only one letter difference
3. AIO sounds like the end of Old Macdonald had a farm

This is true.

Just signed up to join online Justin

I just moved my #UpDoc docs from MKDocs and Material for MKDocs to @astro.build and Starlight.
It took 30 minutes to convert and looks amazing.
I'm really loving automatically generated Documentation published to @github.com pages in the source repo.

#Umbraco

Agreed. With power…

> accusation of gatekeeping
I wish it were not the case but I've literally seen people being told to stay in their lane online and even irl in studios.

So here is the odd thing, I am seeing people without design and development experience, but who are involved in the industry, being empowered to be creative and productive. We have seen designer and developer gatekeeping in the past, the gates are now open.

I agree with the AI bro thing I'm trying to approach my friends. In the most empathetic way I can by simply, describing my transition over the last two months. After that, everything is their choice.

Things are changing dramatically weekly

Like @matuzo.at I am not in the least bit happy about it in many ways, especially ecological. However, I have exactly the same Buzz I had when I first started building websites. And just to add, I feel completely in control, it's my work just the repetitive stuff is now easier.

December, 29 years ago I picked up my first HTML book and started working on websites. December, just gone I built my first MCP server over the holidays. In January, I started using AI to build applications and have barely written a line of code since. It's happening right now.

Proposed commitments from Apple and Google: app certainty and interoperable access The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is seeking views on proposed commitments from Apple and Google to provide more certainty for developers on app distribution, and to enable developers to req...

Govenments change and (Bruce can correct me), but it now means there's potentially going to be a soft approach to Apple's monopoly (ie. they'll decide whether they want to investigate themselves).

Worthy cause.
I'm sure most of us would agree that documentation has the least job satisfaction of all of our tasks.

I'm currently having Claude update and write my docs automatically in github pages using mkdocs and material for mkdocs. I've evolved the instructions and it produces them exactly as I would do myself, which I love.
I'm planning to move to Astro and Starlight a.s.a.p.

I think pretty much everyone that attended that event spends time making life easier for everyone else that attended that event. No trade secrets, no first to market strategies, just a pure love of what we do and getting the best out of ourselves and our industry. Knowledge sharing is our strength.

Your talk was ace @cassiecodes.bsky.social, I particularly loved the callbacks, both code and comedy ones.

It was funny because it was true I think it's the expression.
Also had a little play of Spirit Farer this morning 😁
