Guide to Implement an SSH Client Using Golang

In Golang, the crypto/ssh package provides functionality for implementing an SSH client.


tailspin

tailspin works by reading through a log file line by line, running a series of regexes against each line. The regexes recognize patterns you expect to find in a logfile, like dates, numbers, severity keywords and more.

tailspin does not make any assumptions on the format or position of the items it wants to highlight. For this reason, it requires no configuration and the highlighting will work consistently across different logfiles.


HTML First

The main goal of HTML First is to substantially widen the pool of people who can work on web software codebases. This is desirable because by lowering or removing barriers, it allows a greater number of people to become web programmers and to increase their income. It’s also desirable from a business perspective because it decreases the cost of building software, and decreases the amount of resources required to hire – a notoriously resource intensive process.


Greenmask

Greenmask is a powerful open-source utility that is designed for logical database backup dumping, obfuscation, and restoration. It offers extensive functionality for backup, anonymization, and data masking.

perfect

Prefect is an orchestration and observability platform for building, observing, and triaging workflows. It’s the simplest way to transform Python code into an interactive workflow application.

The rule of least power: It’s one of the core principles of web development and it means that you should Choose the least powerful language suitable for a given purpose.

On the web this means preferring HTML over CSS, and then CSS over JS.
