**Related issue:** NA # Checklist for submitter If some of the following don't apply, delete the relevant line. ## Article New article: "How Fleet completes your Microsoft stack across every OS, not just Apple" (`articles/how-fleet-completes-your-microsoft-stack.md`). Converted from a Google Doc draft into Fleet's article format: key takeaways after the dek, post-takeaways CTA button to the Entra conditional access guide, closing CTA to `/try-fleet` and `/contact`, and a style sweep per the writing guide. Version claims (Entra conditional access: macOS in 4.70.0, Windows in 4.84.0) verified against the changelog. **Needs verification before publishing** (claims about Microsoft's products): - Intune's macOS compliance policy is a fixed six-item checklist, with custom compliance policies unavailable for Apple platforms - No documented CVE tracking for Apple devices in Microsoft's endpoint management stack ## Testing - [ ] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually (preview article rendering on the website)

Deploying the website
To deploy changes to the website to production, merge changes to the main branch. If the changes affect the website's code, or touch any files that the website relies on to build content, such as the query library, osquery schema, docs, handbook, articles, etc., then the website will be redeployed.
Wondering how this works? This is implemented in a GitHub action in this repo. Check out the code there to see how it works! For help understanding what
sails runandnpm runcommands in there do, check the scripts inwebsite/package.jsonand inwebsite/scripts/.
Changing the database schema
To deploy new code to production that relies on changes to the database schema or other external systems (e.g. Stripe), first put the website in "maintenance mode" in Heroku. Then, make your changes in the database schema. Next, if you have a script to fix/migrate existing data, go ahead and run it now. (e.g. sails run fix-or-migrate-existing-data). Then, merge your changes and wait for the deploy to finish. Finally, switch off "maintenance mode" in Heroku.
Note that entering maintenance mode prevents visitors from using the website, so it should be used sparingly, and ideally at low-traffic times of day.
Warning: Doing an especially sensitive schema migration? There is a potential timing issue to consider, thanks to an infrastructure change that eliminated downtime during deploys by using Heroku's built-in support for hot-swapping.

Wiping the production database
I hope you know what you're doing. The "easiest" kind of database schema migration:
sails_datastores__default__url='REAL_DB_URI_HERE' sails run wipe
Then when you see the sailboat, hit CTRL+C to exit. All done!
