Infracost shows cloud cost estimates for Terraform. It enables DevOps, SRE and engineers to see a cost breakdown and understand costs?before making changes, either in the terminal or pull requests. This provides your team with a safety net as people can discuss costs as part of the workflow.

Topgrade

No alt text provided for this image

Keeping your system up to date usually involves invoking multiple package managers. This results in big, non-portable shell one-liners saved in your shell. To remedy this,?topgrade?detects which tools you use and runs the appropriate commands to update them.

Another very useful tool, it was written in Rust Lang and you can install Topgrade via Releases page, or you have Cargo installed (which is the package manager for Rust programming language) you can just run `cargo install topgrade` . Then, if you're using `asdf` you need to run `asdf reshim rust`, to make it available. Now you're ready to run `topgrade`.

It will automatically detect which tools you're using and update them. For instance:

  • System packages
  • npm itself and npm installed packages
  • Vim plugins
  • asdf (itself and plugins)
  • pip3
  • gem itself
  • Flatpak
  • tmux
  • Gnome Shell extensions

And a lot more! If you want it to also update your cargo packages, you should install `cargo-update` package. - Read more >
