> **Auggy** (@mmmpork; 5/1): @dataandme @kierisi @ChelseaParlett I'm working on automating slowdown deploys with Travis CI so  you just have to approve a pull request in Github to publish to your host. If you use blogdown locally to convert Rmd to HTML then you only have to run Hugo in the CI environment, not R.  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/949290380394037248)
