For those that don't know [build hooks](https://docs.netlify.com/configure-builds/build-hooks/) are URLs you can use to trigger new builds and deployments in Netlify. By making a HTTP POST request to a URL, Netlify will pull down the latest master branch of your site, build it, and then deploy it. |
