📁Elasticsearch TypeScript template

andrew_dev — Sat, 30 Oct 2021 22:53:49 +0000

Hey everyone! I've recently created an Elasticsearch Typescript template so you can get started using TS & Elasticsearch.

What is Elasticsearch?

Elasticsearch is a open-source search engine built on Apache Lucene and developed in Java. Elasticsearch allows you to store & search huge volumes of data very quickly in near real-time and give back responses in milliseconds. Yes you heard that right milliseconds... It's able to achieve these fast search speeds/responses because instead of searching the text directly, it searches through an index. It uses a structure based on documents instead of tables and schemas.

Why?

I created this template because I haven't seen many templates for Elasticsearch & Typescript and even tutorials covering this so I decided to create one to make peoples lives easier.

You can get started here!, Just follow the README on how to setup your environment variables, and setting up the server.

⭐s are much appreciated! :)

A fresh-looking, neon theme for your preferred IDE. Almost radioactive.

Just recently wrote a very clean, theme for VSCode called "radium". It mostly consists of green and neon type colors to match our name "radium". Feedback is much appreciated! We are updating it as we go to perfect the theme.

Hey! I'm Andrew, I am a 13 year old currently attending middle school in Canada. I love to code and learn new things each day. And I'd like to say this is heavily inspired from Aiden Bai's "A Year of Code from a High School Student". So here I am writing my own version, Of what I have learnt & built during the past 12 months.

Things I created 🚀

‣ https://github.com/andrewnijmeh/polio: I applied reverse-engineering techniques, to reverse-engineer the polio virus. Using the public gen bank DB. And bio-python library.
‣ https://utilitybot.co Discord bot I created, got into 40+ servers. Not too many but I was definitely proud. It was my first time creating discord bots.
‣ https://github.com/andrewnijmeh/blockchain-springboot Created a simple blockchain using springboot, I used java since at the time I was interested in learning java.

Things I enjoyed doing 🙂
‣ Working at a company creating software for gamers, Worked there for about 10 months December 2020 to July 2021.

‣ Working at my uncles company for the past 2 months (Started in July of 2021 Currently at this role)
‣ Learning about bioinformatics, GenBank, proteins etc.
‣ Learning about AWS, Getting more knowledge about elastic search, etc.

Goals for next school year ↩️
‣ Successfully start my own coding club at my school via hackclub.
‣ Contribute more to open-source on GitHub.
‣ Learn more about VueJS, And Kernel Dev.
‣ Learn more about cyber-security, Improve some of my opsec.

Thanks for reading, I wish you all the best luck for the new school year! (If you are a student of course!)
