Happy Friday everyone! I can’t believe it’s already the end of May. This year is flying by! The area of Texas I live in has been getting some much-needed rain, and I’ve enjoyed checking out what the community has been up to during these torrential storms.

This week’s posts cover things like figuring out who an approver is on a pipeline for contact, how to safely use System.AccessToken in Docker builds, hosting free websites with Azure Static Web Apps, and more! Be sure to check them out!
