Astro 5 is out with a number of changes from Astro 4. The good news is I was able to upgrade instantly with no modifications (but there are some to come later).

A version of my Sessions Raycast script command using Moom layouts instead of Raycast Window Management layouts.

Using Raycast script commands to automate workflow sessions.

Using Python to retrieve and parse my Overcast listening history.

It's Yet Another Raycast Script Command, this time one for tranforming blog post image links to match image file locations in Astro.

Raycast script commands are great for all kinds of scripted tasks, and I'm increasingly using them for tasks related to my website.

If you have a page that you want to show the last modified date on, Astro and remark can do it for you automatically.

Sometimes it's nice to have apps automatically open links in a different browser, which is why the ability to quickly change default browsers is handy.

Thanks to the brilliance of those who came before me, I now have tags on my site.

I now have automatic image processing for my Friends with Brews images that happens automatically when I drop images in a folder, and I love it.

Comparing versions of the same file from two different commits using git.

Blog post pagination: I fought the Astro law and the Astro law won.

While debugging a broken LaunchAgent script, I discovered a great utility.

Automating displaying my IP address in my menu bar.

ChatGPT doesn't always get programming right.

A hyper addition to my podcast workflow that keeps my Mac awake at all times.

Bunch is an amazing little automation tool for controlling work environments on your Mac.

JavaScript array maps are a common pattern in Astro, and very useful ones at that.
