Seems as if I only have time to write a post after major lifestyle changes. Working from home due to COVID-19 has presented me with a bit of time to worok on some personal projects (this blog include). So the first thing I did was update the blog to gatsby v2 which was mostly mechanical dependency updates and a few major breaking changes documented here.
The next goal in order to speed up development is to get some form of CI/CD set up because I was manually deploying this every time I would tweak something or even add a new post. Since this site is hosted on GitHub Pages I decided it would probably be best to implement CD using GitHub Actions. Luckily there is already an action created to autopublish Gatsby sites to GitHub Pages here. So hopefully now that the dev workflow is quicker I will be able to update more often.
