    NGINX Admin’s Handbook

    NGINX Admin’s Handbook

    How to improve NGINX performance, security, and other important things

    nginx-admins-handbook is a practical, in-depth guide for configuring, securing, and operating NGINX across real-world deployments. It distills years of research, notes, and field experience into a single handbook that complements the official docs with concrete rules, explanations, and curated external references. The handbook spans fundamentals and advanced topics alike, from HTTP and SSL/TLS basics to reverse proxy patterns, performance tuning, debugging workflows, and hardening strategies. A centerpiece is its prioritized checklist of 79 rules, grouped by criticality, helping readers focus on what most impacts security, reliability, and speed. Instead of copy-paste snippets in isolation, it emphasizes understanding trade-offs, avoiding common pitfalls, and balancing security with usability. Designed for system administrators and web application engineers, it aims to be a living companion that encourages experimentation, measurement, and continuous improvement of NGINX configurations

    Cortex

    Cortex

    Generate typed SDKs from OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, gRPC

    Cortex is a developer platform that turns API specifications and Markdown into typed SDKs, interactive documentation, and MCP servers from one project configuration. It accepts OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, Protocol Buffer, OpenRPC, and Markdown sources. Generated SDKs can target languages including TypeScript, Python, Go, Java, Kotlin, Ruby, PHP, C#, Rust, C++, and C. The documentation system creates interactive API references and can be built as a self-contained Next.js server. Cortex also generates MCP servers that expose typed tools, specifications, SDK guides, and project documentation to AI agents. Multiple specifications can be combined into a single SDK. Publishing workflows can push generated packages and MCP servers to language registries and GitHub repositories.

    Freebasic Beginners Guide

    An updated Beginners guide to FreeBASIC

    The purpose of this project is to create and update a beginners guide to FreeBASIC. Over the years I have noticed that there was only three real ways to learn FreeBASIC. The FreeBASIC Documentation, the FreeBASIC Community Forum, and A old beginners guide written by Richard D. Clark and Ebben Feagan. Each of these sources are great, but they all assume some experience with a programming language. This Project is taking Richard D. Clark's and Ebben Feagan's "A Beginner's Guide to FreeBasic" and is editing, updating, reorganizing, and simplifying this guide. Mr. Clark and Mr. Feagan generously open sourced there guide so I could start this project. Without being able to stand on their shoulders I could not have even started this project. Please check out my homepage for updated information and ways you can help with this ongoing project. If you can please buy me a hamburger as it is hard writing a book.

    ExpressJS.com

    ExpressJS.com

    The Express.js Website

    This repository contains the source for the Express web site and documentation, the canonical reference for developers using the Express framework. It organizes material into API reference, getting-started guides, best practices, and topic-focused explanations such as routing, middleware, error handling, templating, and performance. Versioned docs help readers match API behavior to the framework version they’re running, reducing confusion during upgrades. The site showcases common patterns through concise examples, making it easy to translate concepts into working code. In addition to core Express usage, the documentation surfaces ecosystem guidance on things like security headers, structured logging, and integration with view engines or ORMs. Because it is open to community contributions, the documentation evolves alongside Express itself, reflecting real-world questions and solutions.
