Test Driven Development has its benefits, but when trying to use it with a content management system creating the test data is a bit of a chore. Umbraco makes editing content a doddle, so why not make the most of that and let XPEDITE automate the test creation based your pages.
XPEDITE does the following automatically:
📷 Generates snapshots tests
⚡ Generates unit test functions
⌨️ Generates fake data based on CMS content
⏭️ Generates Next.js React components

I've added XPEDITE to #Umbraco Marketplace. This extension is designed to help you get a headless #nextjs site created quickly and easily.
Once configured it autogenerates #Typescript components with snapshot tests based on your content types and applies these to your codebase.
You make poor decisions when you have 6 month old twins; choosing to build isbabyinabook.co.uk in client side #React was the wrong choice. Finally the site is on #Next.js like it should have been from day one. I thought the stats would be better, but I was amazed how much...
Struggling to find that perfect #Christmas #gift for a little one? Find a #book with their name in it using IsBabyInABook!
Why stop serving content when your #Umbraco instance goes down?
This demo video shows how you can use #xStatic to create a backup of your live Umbraco site and serve that when the main site is down.

After finding @CodeSharePaul 's amazing PSW tool it made me realise that installing xStatic sucked. 14.1 fixes that! In what I can only imagine is the first #umbraco speedrun I install the CMS, configure xStatic, and deploy to #netlify in under 3 mins. youtu.be/tYdYG3PgRcQ?si=g-wT…
This release fixes race conditions between #umbraco and xStatic so both can be installed at the same time. You no longer need to make any code changes to get started. You can also create Netlify sites from within the CMS.
Included with xStatic 14 is multi-language support, here's a simplified tutorial on how to do it. youtu.be/gQRVHEK0cSc?si=Gw2z…
xStatic v14 beta release now on NuGet for any intrepid #umbraco explorers. Complete UI rebuild using Lit/TS/UUI and now finally comes with multi language site support out the box. Last call for any breaking changes you need put in before the major version is locked in.
#nac5 games are now over, so why not start playing @JamesDash 's grid game instead. aoe2-dash-game.web.app/. I think it works, but something else was happening on the second screen while I built it. GGs @Hera_Aoe and Yo.
For the first time (other than the twins and Ikea furniture) my wife and I have made something together! We built a website isbabyinabook.co.uk. Find books for kids <5 that contain characters with their names. We have over 1300 books, but please tell us if you know any more!
Who'd have thought it, having twins reduces your open source productivity. Well despite that, xStatic 3 is here with Umbraco 10 and 11 support. Shout out to @Castellantech for the commits and testing that shows that it can now work on Linux containers.

Quick little write up of 7 changes I've made in version 2 of xStatic for #umbraco.

Adele's not the only one teasing new releases; xStatic v2 for #Umbraco 9 is now at a stage where it actually works!
sage-of-empires.web.app/1v1 fancy giving Empire Wars a go after all the great games at #RBW5 but like me have no idea how to get started? I've added the 3 simplest build guides I could find to Sage of Empires so you can have at least a bit of autoscrolling help on your second screen.
