- Resize images from s3 with AWS Lambda and Rust

My site contains a lot of images and resizing them for different devices (mobile phone, tabled, desktop etc.) takes a lot of time and (upload) bandwidth. This is especially annoying on Hotel Wi-Fi in a far-away country. With the help of AWS Lambda and Rust I made this into a smooth process.

During my travels

Central Asia 2019 Starting soon!
