Libwebsockets
One great feature for me was being able to accept both WebSocket as well as raw TCP connections on the same port using libwebsockets, this is extremely easy and just required settings the flag LWS_SERVER_OPTION_FALLBACK_TO_RAW.
I encountered other hiccups. They are fully documented and completely valid, but were really confusing to me as a first-time user:
* Sending data requires a specific memory layout[2] – namely having to allocate memory for the websocket header youself before the actual message you want to send. This gave me confusing segfaults in the beginning.
* Sending data / responding to a client message will probably (but not always) fail when just naively using "lws_write()". To correctly send data you need to manually queue your message data, request the "ON_WRITABLE" callback[3] and only then actually send.

Open source at Fastly is getting opener
Through the Fast Forward program, we give free services and support to open source projects and the nonprofits that support them. We support many of the world’s top programming languages (like Python, Rust, Ruby, and the wonderful Scratch), foundational technologies (cURL, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, OpenStreetMap), and projects that make the internet better and more fun for everyone (Inkscape, Mastodon, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Terms of Service; Didn’t Read).

pyaction 4.28.0 Released
This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions with Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with the official python docker image as the base which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the base, we've installed curl gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they are needed to install the GitHub CLI, and they may come in handy anyway (especially curl) when implementing a GitHub Action.
