I decided it was time to modernize my Hugo-based site just a bit further. This week, I implemented a dark theme in SCSS. I used a simple trick to make it easier for me to update the look-and feel.

Moving to Apple Silicon can introduce challenges if you’re using x64-based containers. Sometimes, emulation is the answer. When it’s not, we can combine some Docker features with some bash scripting to create an optimized container that works well for both platforms.

It’s now the end of an era for me. After 5 years as a Wintellectual, it was time for a change. There’s nothing like being surrounded by truly brilliant people that inspire you every day. That’s why I’m becoming a Hubber and joining the DevOps FastTrack team.

Having templates for your company or your personal projects can improve your development life and enable collaboration. In order to take full advantage of this, we need to make the packages we’ve created available to the rest of our team. To do this, we need a package management solution, such as GitHub Packages.

Part of DevOps is supporting the people and processes with the right tools. There is one tool that is particularly powerful for organizations — reusable templates that make it easy to share best practices for new files and projects. In today’s post, we’ll explore creating a template that uses dotnet new to package and distribute a file.

Not every application is running on the latest frameworks or newest technologies. Sometimes, that we have to move a legacy application to Azure. Let’s explore the secrets to making it perform and scale appropriately with modern cloud hosting technologies.

If you’re trying to adopt Azure, it can be an interesting challenge to understand the terminology for all of the service offerings. It gets even more confusing if you need to be in a US Government cloud working with the Microsoft 365 products. Let’s explore the differences between MAC, MAG, GCC, GCC High, DoD, and more!

Blockchain solutions are definitely becoming more popular. Not content to be just a currency, it is finding its way into more business scenarios. It may seem unusual, but that includes Azure SQL Database. Why would we use blockchain technology in a database? That’s what today’s article will explore!

It’s a best practice to use private registries such as Azure Container Registry with container solutions on Azure. There’s very little guidance if you’re considering using a different registry to store your images. In this post, we’re explore how to use other private registries, such as the GitHub packages Container Registry.

There are lots of options for running containers in Azure, such as Azure Container Apps, Azure Container Instances, Kubernetes, Functions, and App Services. Each offering provides different features to support different scenarios, so it’s important to understand some of the container options that Azure provides today.
