removed the need of github app and aws credentials for local dev in unsend.dev

Unsend Open source sending infrastructure for developers

Love to @koushik.dev for building unsend.dev, it's helping us save where we can, and an open source solution will always defeat some faceless corporation in our eyes.

made a stupid thing that cost money. wife added it as an expense and now i have to compensate by taking wise decisions. salary doesn’t count

looking into it right now!

i have a 6yr old nephew at home, i want to teach her basic programming, how do i start?

may be we can build a simple game together?

welcome!
