Hi All - firstly, a big 'thank you' for publishing this with a CC licence - it made it really quick and easy for me to put together my new newsletter (http://wasmweekly.news/).
I've got a quick question that I hope you'll be able to help out with. I'm using mailchimp to email the subscribers, which I believe is the same process as yourselves. Ths means that my workflow is a bit repetitive:
I haven't managed to find a way to author the issues in a single place, e.g. markdown to mailchimp conversion.
Have you managed to find a good way to avoid creating the same content in two different formats / locations?
Thank you!
As far as I know this process is automated for Swift Weekly Brief. @jessesquires should know more about it.
Also, congrats on your newsletter! ๐
Hi @ColinEberhardt! I believe we're using MailChimp's RSS-to-email feature: https://mailchimp.com/features/rss-to-email/
Brilliant, thanks @gregheo - I hadn't thought of that. This will certainly make my life simpler ๐ฏ
Hey @ColinEberhardt ! ๐ ๐
Awesome to hear. Newsletter looks good!
@gregheo is correct, we're using the RSS-to-email. Then, I automate tweets using IFTTT which also has RSS hooks. With this + GH Pages hosting, all we need to do each with is merge some markdown and everything else happens automatically. โจ
Let me know if you have any other questions! ๐
Also, sorry to chime in late (been traveling).
Thanks @jessesquires - really appreciate the help from you all, it's been a big help :-)
