thebakery.dev with Nicola Corti

The Developers' Bakery

As with every 10 episodes, we’re back with a special episode! 🎁

Today we’re talking about an open-source project which is a bit atypical: thebakery.dev. Exactly, we’re going to walk through the website and the infrastructure that is powering The Developers’ Bakery.

Did you know that this podcast is fully open-source, self-hosted and running on GitHub pages?

In this episode, I will walk you through all my secrets and automations that help me publish a podcast every other week!

Do you have any feedback on the show so far? If so, drop me a message either on the website or on Twitter.

Enjoy the show 👨‍🍳
