I already know software engineering and can code web applications and use genai sdk in my apps.

But I still can't easily figure out to deploy my apps to a VPS.

So far I have manually set up my server and database.

I want learn more on devops to deploy it using containers.

This will enable me to host mutiple service in a VPS and I don't have to use PAAS solutions.

I can also easily switch providers too.

To aid my process to shortlist house for purchase I am creating a web app for this.

The app will use genai to extract the details of houses listed for sale and then update my custom database.

For example I can input a youtube url and it will fetch the transcript and use llm to generate Json response based on predefined schema.

I can review and shortlist the houses based on various custom parameters using the web interface.

The mvp is done in a proprietary tech stack, I just need to port it to open source tech stack with React and FastAPI

I have been just splitting my head to parse data from from a erp database to csv and then from csv to erp database again using the programming language user by erp system.

The first part of converting data to csv works fine with help of ai coding assistant.

The reverse part of csv to database is getting challenging and even claude sonnet 3.7 is not able to escape newline correctly.

I am now implementation the data format in json which is much simpler.

You can turn off some safety filters off when using gemni pro api. I use it on my own custom chatbot

I tried at least 5 Charting Libraries before settling for Echarts.

I used it with React. My app is mostly financial data simulation and analysis and echarts fit the need

The documentation is great and with some tweaking you can make it look great. The customizing options are quite good.

I prefer it to some react only charting libraries .

Using pandas or numpy is more than uisng optimal syntax

There is a reason why python is used for ML for mathematical calculations. You could do all low level matrix multiplication using custom functions uisng any language. But is that optimal way to dob that.

My use case is similar

Hmm looks like similar to python. I hope something like pandas also come to, so that I can do all complex claculations client side instead of doing it with python backend

Web app is possible with Django but creating mobile version will be challenging as options are not much.

Your best option is to create backend api with python frameworks like Django Rest Frameworks or FastAPI. Frontend can be React which can be used for both web and mobile using React Native.

I had previous experience in python but had to learn React to handle similar requirements.

It's always best to use the right tool for right job.

I am actually satisfied that I went this route, added new skills and possibilities

Astro is great, using it for my blog site and. I have a mono repo setup React SPA and Astro For Blog. I can create a reusable component in React Repo and reuse in Astro blog.

You could also write native astro components which are very close to vanilla html css with added benifit of making reusable components and scoped css. And you can also use svelte or vue components.

Can acess it in india. Will be using until free trial of 2 months. 20usd plus taxes is unaffordable for most of indians . Amazon prime for example cost 1.5 usd per month here

I am working on a RAG based chatbot to answer the queries based on contents of my main website and blog which is fintech related .

I would also in future try to make it generic so that it can crawl any website and store new contents in vector databases. Response to user query then can be returned by combining the vector search and llm
