Happy Tuesday!

It's newsletter, Whee! newsletter. Ha, sorry for the corny joke. Seeing as this is issue 007, I tried my hand at trying to come up with something James Bond-y and quirky.

I promise, the rest of this email is anything but corny.

Here's the funnest resources I've found since we last saw each other.

Enjoy!

[HTML5 Boilerplate hits v7](https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate) 
With nearly 1700 commits, HTML5 Boilerplate has hit v7. A nice foundation for building web applications.

[DEV is open-sourcing it's performance metrics via Skylight](https://dev.to/devteam/dev-community-is-open-sourcing-its-performance-metrics-via-skylight-221m) by [@ThePracticalDev](https://twitter.com/ThePracticalDev)
I'm always impressed with the level of transparency that Ben, Jess and Peter share about the DEV community that they are building. From their responses to posts in DEV, to the [open-sourcing of the entire site](https://github.com/thepracticaldev/dev.to) and now to the performance metrics. Fanboying hard on the DEV community.

[How I reduced my Jekyll build time by 61%](https://forestry.io/blog/how-i-reduced-my-jekyll-build-time-by-61/) by [@desiredpersona](https://twitter.com/desiredpersona) 
Some great insights into how Colin was able to reduce the build time of his Jekyll project. Jekyll is currently my go-to static site generator and so I'm interested in implementing some of these things that Colin was able to achieve.
