Measure CO2 emissions of your APIs
Have you ever wondered about the carbon footprint of your API? This week, the 27th climate summit takes place in Egypt. This inspired us to draw attention to the emissions produced by our online behaviour. We introduced some CO2-related features to our API testing tool: - Calculate carbon emissions of an API call - Set up a check to validate that your API endpoint doesn't cross the limit when it comes to emissions - Test all your API endpoints and get an approximate calculation of your API emissions in total We hope that by using these features, you will become more aware of the carbon…
In plain words
Measure CO2 emissions of your APIs is an API testing tool that calculates the carbon footprint of individual API calls and entire endpoints. Developers can set emissions limits to validate that their APIs stay within carbon thresholds and test all endpoints to get a total emissions estimate. The tool helps teams understand the environmental impact of their infrastructure and make more sustainable hosting decisions.

You could for example switch to a sustainable hosting provider. http://github.com/stepci/stepci

I made a thing! In 2014, I was holding a stack of iPhones and thought to myself: "Hey, if I had each phone display a playing card, I could click a button and they'd shuffle themselves" I pared that idea all the way down to this: trading cards made of e-ink displays. Right now, each card costs me about $20 each, but with only a bit more scale, I think I can get that down to $10. In doing this project, I learned how to design electronics and circuit boards. I learned Rust and wrote my first driver, I upped my CAD skills, 3D printed, and did my first resin casting. I generated the images on the…
