NGINX is a tool that can be used as a web server, reverse proxy, load balancer, streaming media files, application gateway, content caching, and so much more. It can be said to be a Swiss army knife for optimizing and securing your web application deployment.

The series “NGINX Survival Guide” will start from the basics and cover the bare minimum required for a backend developer to get going with NGINX.

The competition was too much for freshers and the AI hype added salt to the injury.

LibSQL is an Open Contribution fork of SQLite. Open Contribution means that it allows suggestions and contributions from the community as opposed to SQLite which is open source but doesn’t accept community contributions.

Installation of LibSQL Client(s)

There are two libraries for LibSQL to interact with Python, the libsql-client and the libsql-experimental-python. The former is the recommended client as it is stable, whereas the latter is in development and has the latest features from the libsql database engine, however, it is compatible with the sqlite module.
