    <p><b>== YouTube Subscriber tracker ==</b></br></p>
    <p>I wanted to track how much a Youtube channel subscribers has grown over time. But I could not find any clean
        existing solutions on the internet. I also wanted to learn AWS at the same time. So I thought of developing a
        tiny project on AWS free tier for the same.
    </p>

    <p>For continuous tracking, subscribers/views/videos count had to be captured on daily basis. I
        used AWS Lambda for compute and DynamoDB for storage. For daily trigger of Lambda functions, I used AWS
        EventBridge with cron expressions.</p>

    <p>I also wanted to allow anyone else also to add any channel they wished to track. So I developed a minimal NET
        Core/React app
        and it was hosted on Elastic Beanstalk. I added an Elastic Load Balancer (with IPv6) as it gives easier HTTPS
        certificates. Lazy :).</p>

    <p>If you like to track any channel, give it a <a href="https://youtubehistory.regulardev.in/"
            target="_blank">try</a> and
        kindly report issues if any.</p>
