Seeing AI more as a tool and less as a threat is the right approach. But it also needs a change of mindset and client education.

If AI can build websites faster than ever, what are developers for? AI-assisted development is making websites and applications faster to build, but it does not remove the need for experienced developers. This article explores how developers and agencies must shift from simply producing code to delivering judgment, reliability, architecture, security, and long-term....

Complex CMS implementations are not “just websites”. They are evolving applications with integrations, workflows, data transformations, security concerns, and long-term maintenance needs that go far beyond simple web development.

As an Umbraco agency, we have access to multiple Umbraco Cloud accounts - clients, other agencies etc. Some of those have plenty of websites, and at some point it becomes exhausting to click on each of the websites in order to see which environments have pending commits.

Our own Konstantinos Giannopoulos had this issue more often than not, so he developed a browser plugin to make his life easier.

This little thing plugs into the Umbraco Cloud account you are logged in and shows you a status page with all projects, as if you had clicked inside each one and checked pending commits. It's a life saver when you handle a lot of stuff.

Unfortunately, since this Umbraco Cloud page does not really have an API, we can't do it for multiple accounts at once - it's based on the account you're currently logged in, and it can't track legacy (v8, v7) projects. But still, it's a good tool to use when you need to have a general overview of what's going on.

Interested? If so, say so, and we're going to put it on GitHub and maybe on the Chrome marketplace as well.
