jarombek-com

Contains code for my personal website jarombek.com. The website uses a MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React.js, Node.js). All the source code is found under the src directory, which is further separated between client and server code.

There are a number of related repositories for my website:

Public Repositories

• jarombek-com-infrastructure: Infrastructure as code for my website in AWS. Uses Terraform (and maybe in the future CloudFormation).
• jarombek-com-posts: the blog posts HTML code. First converted to JSON via the html-tokenizer and then placed in the jarombek-com-database repository. The JSON is stored in my MongoDB document database and converted to JSX in this project (the JSXConverter class).
• jarombek-com-sources: the source code that is discussed in my blog posts.
• html-tokenizer: converts HTML to JSON for storage in a document database of choice (in my case MongoDB).

Private Repositories

• jarombek-com-database: Contains blog post data stored in MongoDB along with some automated scripts.
• jarombek-com-emails: AWS lambda functions that send subscription emails to people who subscribe to my website.
• jarombek-com-aws: legacy AWS configuration prior to infrastructure as code.
