Hey folks, We've got another fantastic lineup of talks for you this month, hosted by [Gibe](https://gibe.digital/) in their new office. Refreshments will be provided for t

Meetup

If you're looking to set up CI/CD with #Umbraco Cloud, Umbraco CI/CD Flow is not your only option.

You can check out the approach I like to take in my article for @24DaysInUmbraco

https://24days.in/umbraco-cms/2024/simple-ci-cd/

Simple(r)? CI/CD for Umbraco Cloud β€” 24 Days In Umbraco

An alternative approach to CI/CD on Umbraco Cloud, along with a pipeline to deploy frontend assets.

@LiamGoldfinch @24DaysInUmbraco yeah, the CI/CD Flow zip isn't really a "deployment package" in the same way - it's actually a source package that gets merged with the repo that lives on Cloud, it's then rebuilt 😬 and deployed. A diff gets generated from the Cloud that we need to apply to our own repo too πŸ˜….

It can all be done as part of a single CI pipeline (and Umbraco provides YAML we can use) but the process and code is non-trivial with a lot of moving parts.

@LiamGoldfinch @24DaysInUmbraco Yeah, it's really the only pain point left with Cloud, but actually pretty straightforward to work around.

The CI/CD Flow feature solves this by letting you push a zip file for "deployment" but there are other other trade offs (and still no immunity from other git shenanigans) with that approach. IMO having a workaround for frontend files, which kind of represents a sensible sensible separation of concerns anyway, makes sense.

The most jarring thing for me about the growth of Halloween in the UK is that it's now normal for people to have a display of rotten vegetables on their doorstep in the middle of November.

Tuesday me: I hope I have enough content for a 40 minute talk.

Wednesday me: How am I going to deliver all this in anything less than two hours?

@matt my talk now has a dedicated section all about the only acceptable place to use the null forgiving operator.
@matt wow, that needed a content warning.

Putting some code examples together for a talk on Nullable Reference Types on Friday - before and after kind of thing.

Oh boy, it's so hard going back to the old way even if just for contrived examples. Having the IDE/compiler not being null-aware feels so dumb now.
