Building My Blog with GitHub Actions
So I Changed My DevOps
As some may know, I already had a fully working CI/CD process for my blog and it was running on Azure Pipelines. As someone that is always learning and wanting to play with a new tool, I was pretty intrigued when GitHub Actions was formally announced at GitHub Universe.

How I Built A Blog
I have updated my blog to use GitHub Actions for Ci/CD, check out this post to learn more! Why a Post on This?
I have been asked a few times why I decided to build a blog and more importantly, what I did to build a blog that was lightweight, easy to modify (i.e. add posts) and most importantly, is cheap.

Azure CLIs Are Awesome
Did you know the Azure CLI was Extendable?
I did not know this. I was minding my business, when I decided to catch up on some Azure Friday videos, and found this beauty from June 23rd 2018 regarding extending the Azure CLI and how it was completely in the open.

Resetting Git Working Directory Commands
I prefer CLI to visual tools for Git
In doing my day-to-day development, I prefer to do most tasks Git related in a CLI. There are great tools available in Visual Studio 2017, Code, and 3rd party software like Source Tree, but for I like what I like, and the CLI does it for me. One thing that it is super easy to do in the CLI is “resetting” or clearing a working directory and starting fresh.
