Follow Up

A project to keep track of links and pages that interest me.

This includes a:

  • CDK project for provisioning AWS resources
  • Script Kit function for actually saving the links
  • Eleventy website to publicly display links.

Future Ideas

In the future I am interested in ideas like:

  • a weekly email of all of the previous week's links
  • an email that fetches a random link from the past

CDK Setup

npm install
npx aws-cdk deploy

I then open the AWS Management Console to the IAM section and manually create access tokens for each user (one user per computer) that I generated and then save the tokens into my ~/.kenv/.env under FOLLOW_UP_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and FOLLOW_UP_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. I also save in there the created DynamoDB table name under FOLLOW_UP_TABLE_NAME.

Script Kit setup

Copy the functions/save-a-link.js script into your kenv environment.

Then you should be able to either run it from the script listing or press opt+l and start saving links. I use Microsoft Edge, but feel free to change the browser it pulls from within your instance of the script.
