This week we are diving back into Skillcrush 105 and getting to know the command line a little bit more. Your workspace is ready to go so it is time to start learning the basics of the command line. Keep in mind some of these commands will differ depending on what computer you are using…

GitHub Homepage: https://github.com/hyperlane-dev/hyperlane My deep dive into context management began during a performance optimization project where I discovered that inefficient request context handling was creating memory leaks and performance bottlenecks. Traditional web frameworks often treat context as an afterthought, leading to resource waste and complex state management. This experience led me to explore how sophisticated…

GitHub Homepage: https://github.com/hyperlane-dev/hyperlane My journey into robust error handling began during a production incident where a single unhandled exception brought down our entire web service. The cascade failure taught me that error handling isn’t just about preventing crashes—it’s about building resilient systems that gracefully degrade under stress while maintaining service availability. This experience led me…

Script automation is the use of code, written in languages such as Bash, Python, or PowerShell, to automate repetitive or time‑consuming tasks in IT operations, system administration, and software development. Instead of performing tasks manually, teams can run scripts to trigger processes such as application deployment, data backups, file transfers, or system monitoring. Many businesses…

Designing a database schema sounds simple—until you’re staring at a blank ER diagram or trying to fix a structure that’s already causing performance issues.The AI Database Schema Generator is built to take the pain out of schema creation by instantly generating well-structured designs from plain-text prompts. But if your schema is poorly planned from the…

Photo by Google DeepMind from Pexels Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized how we interact with AI, generating incredibly human-like text, summarizing complex documents, and even writing code. Yet, for all their prowess, LLMs inherently produce free-form, unstructured text. While fantastic for conversational AI, this unstructured nature becomes a significant bottleneck when you need to…

When I first started building Chrome extensions, it was mostly about solving small personal annoyances. Over time, I realized that many of these little problems weren’t just mine—other people were struggling with them too. That realization led me to build Cimple – Premium New Tab Experience, a Chrome extension designed to replace the default new…
