Software engineer and enthusiast of all things tech

I'm Pate, a software engineer based in Charleston, SC. I'm currently the VP of Software Development at ShiftNOW, where we're building a platform to help Restaurants and Events fill their staffing needs.

Deploying patebryant.com

Deploying this site was a fairly straight forward process as it only took roughly 30 minutes. Most of the time was spent waiting for the DNS to propagate. Using Vercel made it super easy.

NextJS Sitemap Example

Adding next-sitemap to the site was a breeze. It's easy to setup, fast, and makes managing sitemap.xml effortless.

The new patebryant.com

Over the long weekend of May 27th to May 29th, I decided to rebuild patebryant.com. Previously it had not been much, just a simple netlify template that I had updated the design a little and put in my own new links.
