Here you will find various writings on subjects which I deem interesting enough to write about. That typically includes
web development, miscellaneous programming with python and the Godot game engine, and linux things.
I've previously written about how we use CircleCI and Ansible for continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD), and now we have a couple of projects using Github Actions instead of CircleCI, so I thought I'd write another post detailing how one of these projects handles its CI/CD.
The third (and probably final) framework I'll be writing my timekeeping page in is Vue. I've worked on a project in the past

One of these things is managing dependencies amongst multiple environments, namely development, CI / CD, and production.
