Optimize Rust build in Docker

This is a docker file I pushed that relies on docker caching to optimize builds:

How to find a frontmatter variable with your shell

So I have a file like:

---
title: Server infrastructure
description: IPFS Cluster provides data orchestration across a swarm of IPFS daemons by allocating, replicating, and tracking a global pin-set distributed among multiple peers. Learn how to install it here.
current-ipfs-cluster-version: v1.0.0-rc4

# Server infrastructure

If you want to install IPFS in a server environment and offer IPFS as a service, you should look at IPFS Cluster. IPFS Cluster provides data orchestration across a swarm of IPFS daemons by allocating, replicating, and tracking a global pin-set distributed among multiple peers. This makes it significantly easier to manage multiple IPFS nodes and ensure that data is available across an internal network.

## Create a local cluster

To see if IPFS Cluster is suitable for your project, follow this quick start guide and spin up a local IPFS Cluster instance. At the end of this guide, you will have a solid understanding of how IPFS Cluster is set up and how to interact with it. If you'd rather create a production-ready cluster, take a look at the [official IPFS Cluster documentation →](https://cluster.ipfs.io/)

I want to find the value for current-ipfs-cluster-version.

Build Environment Variables in Go

I want to customize the build process of a piece of go code. It’s dockerized. I know there are a few parameters I want to use, like -modfile that lets you change the go.mod and go.sum files used to build the app.

Ultra Logging

I’ve been stuck in a tunnel for some time.

Sometimes there are problems that just feels like you need to hit your head against a wall for a day or a week without any visible outcome. That happens. For example when you’re doing research work, comparing libraries, setting up new systems or debugging random bugs in Software.

Notes about IPLD

IPLD is a data model developper by Protocol Labs (they make IPFS). It basically emerged from their work on content-addressed data.

Offline-First and Decentralization

I am not sure this is a well understood or well researched fact. Might be. But researching on offline first applications and working in the decentralized field, I find there are many relations between both.
