How to create a video chat service

I believe I live in modern times until I realize that in the ’60s you could already buy a videoconferencing system, and you could meet Douglas Engelbart in a mind-blowing demo in 1968. So, now that we have advanced in the XXI century, how hard should it be to create a private video chat using a serverless WebRTC app, just like Western Electric could have announced sixty years ago? As usual, it’s not completely easy, and you need to overcome some problems to do the P2P connection.

How to deploy a HUGO site in Azure Static Web App

This past May 19th, while I was watching the Static Web App Build presentation, I decided to do a test with HUGO to start again my blog after 5 years of silence.

TL;DR: Static Web Apps allows you to deploy static content with a custom domain and Azure Web Apps does the rest: creates a GitHub Action for continuous deployment, gives you an SSL certificate for your custom domain, does the global distribution and helps you with Azure Functions if you need to generate some content from an API. Best of all, it’s all for FREE, you even get a free SSL certificate for your site’s custom domain.
