I’m unreasonably proud of setting up automated patching for NGINX to include PageSpeed: https://github.com/knyzorg/nginx-pagespeed

The whole project is basically just a ‘sed’ command, but piecing everything together (where to get the source code, how to build nginx, make Debian packages, publish packages, etc) was a major effort.

I found myself in the valley between people who didn’t know and had no means of learning, and those who knew and for whom it was obvious. I’ve learned a lot.

Pretty happy with the reception I had last month for my latest project: https://github.com/xvello/letsblockit || https://letsblock.it

Since the ShowHN post, I added more features (including presets to hide github/stackoverflow copycats) and got PRs from two contributors. Hoping to keep the momentum going!
