  • Tip of the Day #1

    GatsbyJS Devs: Don't use the state prop (props.location.state). It may pass a Lighthouse audit. It may seem like a really cool "shortcut" to creating pages, but it will kill you in Search.

  • Tip of the Day #2

    If you are offering a course, make sure that it is updated to the latest of whatever. Don't just create it and then forget about it while still offering it (for a hefty price).

  • Tip of the Day #3

    Gatsby Devs: don't use @emotion/core and @emotion/styled 10+ with GatsbyJs 2. Too many breaking changes that only complicate matters and also incompatible out of the box. Use styled-components instead.

  • Tip of the Day #4

    Gatsby Devs: don't use the iframe tag in your dangerouslySetInnerHTML with GatsbyJS. It won't work, and probably a bad idea anyway. Use it in your component.

  • Tip of the Day #5

    Going serverless does not mean going "databaseless".

  • Tip of the Day #6

    Going serverless with a backend serverless database does not necessarily mean your app is much more secure.

  • Tip of the Day #7

    if you don't use a tool often and tend to forget a step, set a daily reminder to remember it until you get it down.
