This week, I interacted with a DevOps practitioner turned founder, and a Tech Architect turned Creator. I realized how one could build fantastic side hustle’s these days.

I read this nice introduction post to Terraform - an open-source infrastructure as a code software tool that is important as we advance into a multi-cloud world.

If you are a company building, developer-facing products and users ask questions on discussion platforms like StackOverflow, Discourse. But, beyond a point, engaging/curating/answering devs building software using your product is hard, recognizing community members contributing, sharing knowledge more challenging problems.

Lux is a Python library that facilitates fast and easy data exploration by automating the visualization and data analysis process. By simply printing out a data frame in a Jupyter notebook, Lux recommends a set of visualizations highlighting interesting trends and patterns in the dataset.

JavaScript, API, and Markup - JAMStack is used to build static websites and simple web applications. It offers a great developer experience. Jamstack Conf is happening in October, CFP closes on July 9th, 2021. I’m happy to help if you want to write a CFP.
