Overthinking gone crazy, thought it would be a whole different thing, but it wasn't! 😄 🤔Ever wondered how #websites create unique web addresses (the subdomain link technique that sites like #Wix use) for their users? I sure did! The same #curiosity led me to a time pass #project! 💡 #Introducing: Card Generator! Users can sign up and claim their piece of address on the #internet. The links are unique to users and can be used by anyone on the internet to access the card. #CheckItOut yourself @ card.midhunnair.dev 🌐 Now to the #question: how did I do that? There's no rocket science involved! I've been using #Cloudflare for quite some time, and all I needed to do was add a #DNS record #dynamically (on user signup). A quick #Google search gave me the answer. It was just #APIs! The DNS service providers like Cloudflare do provide APIs to perform #CRUD operations on the DNS records! That's it, and my project was #completed! 🚀 Note: I've used #Vercel for deploying my project. So, I also needed to add the domain to the Vercel project along with Cloudflare for this whole thing to work. Now, the issue here is free Vercel project only supports up to 50 domains. 🪦 #RIP to my project then... 😔 #WebDevelopment #Cloudflare #Vercel #DNS #APIs #TechInnovation #WebDev #CodingLife #LinkedInLearning #SideProjects

"2. CDK Is Not IaC, It’s a CFN Hack" bold statement. https://lnkd.in/dZ7n5W2B Half of the blog bashes CFN and CDK. I know its not perfect, nothing is. But it is because SST has been built on top of this "broken foundation" and then tried to offer something that is "better".. Targeting a different audience than CDK and CFN have, making it "easier" for users to get started but then they still fall into the same pitfalls and then wonder why its happening.. 🫣 "The core problem is that CDK is leaking an implementation detail from CloudFormation. A sign that the system is poorly designed." No, the core problem is that SST is trying to force CDK/CFN into doing it a "better way" and expecting a different outcome. Poor design? Really glad I don't have a CDK mix with SST deployed in production as V3 won't be able to support CDK components in SST V3, especially true for the higher-order constructs.
