What is LeetHub?

A chrome extension that automatically pushes your code to GitHub when you pass all tests on a Leetcode problem.

How fast is it really?

THIS FAST (~400ms, 530x speed improvement)!

Why LeetHub?

1. Recruiters want to see your contributions to the Open Source community, be it through side projects, solving algorithms/data-structures, or contributing to existing OS projects.
As of now, GitHub is developers' #1 portfolio. LeetHub just makes it much easier (autonomous) to keep track of progress and contributions on the largest network of engineering community, GitHub.

2. There's no easy way of accessing your leetcode problems in one place!
Moreover, pushing code manually to GitHub from Leetcode is very time consuming. So, why not just automate it entirely without spending a SINGLE additional second on it?

How does LeetHub work?

fuite

A tool for finding memory leaks in web apps

A tool for finding memory leaks in web apps

fuite

fuite /fɥit/ French for "leak"

fuite is a CLI tool for finding memory leaks in web apps.

Introductory blog post

Tutorial video

Usage

npx fuite https://example.com
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This will check for leaks and print output to stdout.

By default, fuite will assume that the site is a client-rendered webapp, and it will search for internal links on the given page. Then for each link, it will:

  1. Click the link
  2. Press the browser back button
  3. Repeat to see if the scenario is leaking

For other scenarios, see scenarios.

How it works

fuite launches Chrome using Puppeteer, loads a web page, and runs a scenario against it. It runs the scenario some number of iterations (7 by default) and looks for objects that leaked 7 times (or 14 times, or 28 times). This might sound like a strange approach, but it's useful for cutting through the noise in memory analysis.

Standard Version

Automate versioning and CHANGELOG generation, with semver.org and conventionalcommits.org

🏆 Automate versioning and CHANGELOG generation, with semver.org and conventionalcommits.org

Standard Version

A utility for versioning using semver and CHANGELOG generation powered by Conventional Commits.

ci NPM version codecov Conventional Commits Community slack

Having problems? Want to contribute? Join us on the node-tooling community Slack.

How It Works:

  1. Follow the Conventional Commits Specification in your repository.
  2. When you're ready to release, run standard-version.

standard-version will then do the following:

  1. Retrieve the current version of your repository by looking at packageFiles[1], falling back to the last git tag.
  2. bump the version in bumpFiles[1] based on your commits.
  3. Generates a changelog based on your commits (uses conventional-changelog under the hood).
  4. Creates a new commit including your bumpFiles[1] and updated CHANGELOG.
  5. Creates a new tag with the new version number.

bumpFiles, packageFiles and updaters

standard-version uses a few key concepts for handling version bumping in your project.

  • packageFiles – User-defined files where versions can be read from and be "bumped"
    • Examples: package.json
