R1D32 More Salesforce DX
I wrapped up the Application Development with SalesForce DX module.
In this module we learned how to create and publish new Salesforce DX projects, how to convert old “org based” projects into Salesforce DX apps, and how to publish new Salesforce DX apps into old orgs. Everything makes sense more or less and I think I will get the hang of it once I am working in my real production org.
I really like how you can use the metadata API to ensure that settings are consistent across all of your projects. This way instead of learning what all the settings should be and have a repo full of hand crafted config files you can simply import and export these things using the sfdx cli.
I’m moving on to the next two modules which cover CI/CD and git. It looks like the trailhead is using Travis CI as an example. I am planning on writing up a short guide on how to do this stuff with CircleCI as well.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

Sunday Steamy Sunday
Sunday Steamy Sunday I was supposed to get up and go birding this morning, but it was going to be 87F (28C) and very humid by the time we finished, so I'm here blogging from the comfort of my air-conditioned home instead. We planned on heading into Richmon...

The Pyodide 314.0 release announcement (via Hacker News) includes news I've been looking forward to for a long time: You can now publish Python packages built for Pyodide (or any Python runtime compatible with the PyEmscripten platform defined in PEP 783)...

This is a really nice set of transitions when pinching in and out in Photos in iOS 26. This is trickier than it seems, because it’s not just a linear zoom (like it would be in Maps or Sketch, for example). It’s a zoom and reflow – from 3 items to 1 item pe...
