Essential Commands

This post serves as a quick reference guide for myself and potentially other developers who might find these commands useful. In this collection, you’ll find commands for updating and installing basic utilities, setting up web servers, configuring SSL certificates, and installing popular programming languages and runtime environments....

Speech models + LLMs = Magic

Speech-to-text models are the magic behind converting spoken language into written text. From dictating documents and emails to transcribing meetings, their applications are vast. Personally, I rely on this feature to send hands-free messages and control my smart home devices. While those everyday uses are great, I recently discovered an even more powerful application for speech-to-text. When you combine speech recognition with the power of LLMs, things get really interesting. We’re talking Q&A documents, meeting summaries, and even enhancing RAG models....

Mongo Express Middleware

I am super excited to share my latest open-source project with all of you — Mongo Express Middleware library! 💻 It all started with a fun weekend project where I was building APIs for a MongoDB database.

That’s when I realized I needed a library to handle the API layer, so I had to make a choice — find one or build one myself....
