Node-RED
Low-code programming for event-driven applications
Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways. It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette that can be deployed to its runtime in a single-click. Node-RED provides a browser-based flow editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette. Flows can be then deployed to the runtime in a single-click. JavaScript functions can be created within the editor using a rich text editor. A built-in library allows you to save useful functions, templates or flows for re-use. The light-weight runtime is built on Node.js, taking full advantage of its event-driven, non-blocking model. This makes it ideal to run at the edge of the network on low-cost hardware such as the Raspberry Pi as well as in the cloud. -

Brunch
Web applications made easy
Brunch lets you focus on what matters most, solving real problems instead of messing around with the glue. By being opinionated about your build pipeline, Brunch is able to provide a smooth and fast experience, and makes your config files take a drastic cut. It doesn't take much to get around with brunch. 'brunch new' to create a new project. 'brunch build' to build. 'brunch watch' to live-compile. Installation is one-line, once you have node.js. You will find that the typical config of a Brunch application is an order of magnitude simpler, compared to Webpack, Grunt, or Gulp. Besides configs, brunch is also simpler in terms of commands. Grunt / Gulp commands replicate all plugins it loads. Brunch always has three commands: new, build and watch. Build / watch commands may receive optional production flag which will tell Brunch to optimize assets, javascripts and stylesheets. -

PWA
(WIP) Universal PWA Builder
PWA is a “universal, framework-agnostic PWA builder” developed by Luke Edwards (lukeed) that aims to let developers scaffold progressive web apps with minimal friction across different view frameworks or libraries. Unlike many CLI tools that target a specific framework (React, Vue, Svelte), this project intentionally tries to remain agnostic, supporting presets for Preact, React, Vue, Svelte and even vanilla JS, while offering all the PWA boilerplate you need (service workers, manifest, offline support) right out of the box. The project is designed for speed of setup: you run pwa init, choose your preset, then pwa build or pwa watch and you get a production-ready bundle with PWA features baked in. The README emphasizes that modern bundlers (Webpack, Rollup) and ecosystem maturity finally allow a universal CLI of this kind, whereas earlier attempts weren’t practical. -

UpUp
Easily create sites that work offline as well as online
UpUp is a tiny JavaScript library that makes sure your users can always access your site's content, even when they're on a plane, in an elevator, or 20,000 leagues under the sea. Your users are no longer sitting at their desktops, with a wire connecting them to the internet. They are visiting your site from a phone in an elevator, from their tablet on the subway, or on their laptop while they sit cramped into seat 25 E. This is why modern browsers support service workers, a new technology which lets you serve your content to your users, even when they are offline. UpUp is a free, open-source project which makes using this modern magic as simple as calling one command. While easy to pick up, UpUp is powerful enough to support anything from showing simple messages, to making fully functional single-page applications available offline, with data customized for each of your users. -

vConsole
A lightweight, extendable front-end developer tool for mobile web page
vConsole is a lightweight, extendable front-end developer tool for mobile web page. A plugin allows you to add a new tab, add one or more tool button(s). You can customize the functions of the tab and buttons. After imported, vConsole should be inited manually. When vConsole is not loaded, logs will be printed to native console. After importing vConsole, logs will be printed to both front-end console and native console. Some useful vConsole properties and methods are available for plugin development. You can destroy an vConsole instance object and remove vConsole panel from document. You can also add a new plugin to vConsole. Duplicate plugin will be ignored. Create an vConsole plugin object, bind plugin events to this object, and add this object to vConsole. While installing and running a plugin, vConsole will trigger some events to allow a plugin customizing it's functions. -

Hyperapp
Tiny framework for building hypertext applications
The tiny framework for building hypertext applications. Do more with less—We have minimized the concepts you need to learn to get stuff done. Views, actions, effects, and subscriptions are all pretty easy to get to grips with and work together seamlessly. Write what, not how—With a declarative API that's easy to read and fun to write, Hyperapp is the best way to build purely functional, feature-rich, browser-based apps in JavaScript. Smaller than a favicon—1 kB, give or take. Hyperapp is an ultra-lightweight Virtual DOM, highly-optimized diff algorithm, and state management library obsessed with minimalism. Official packages provide access to The Web Platform, and ensure that the APIs are exposed in a way that makes sense for Hyperapp, and the underlying code is stable. We already cover a decent amount of features, but you can always create your own effects and subscriptions if something is not available yet. -

UI Bootstrap
Bootstrap components written in pure AngularJS by the AngularUI Team
Bootstrap components written in pure AngularJS by the AngularUI Team. UI Bootstrap provides a set of native AngularJS directives based on Bootstrap's markup and CSS. As a result no dependency on jQuery or Bootstrap's JavaScript is required. Build files for all directives are distributed in several flavours: minified for production usage, un-minified for development, with or without templates. It should be noted that the -tpls files contain the templates bundled in JavaScript, while the regular version does not contain the bundled templates. Alternativelly, if you are only interested in a subset of directives, you can create your own build. Whichever method you choose the good news that the overall size of a download is fairly small: 122K minified for all directives with templates and 98K without (~31kB with gzip compression, with templates, and 28K gzipped without). -

Workbox
JavaScript libraries for Progressive Web Apps
Workbox is a set of libraries that can power a production-ready service worker for your Progressive Web App. Stop waiting on the network! You can improve your web app's performance by caching and serving your files, powered by a service worker. Even on an unreliable connection, your web app can still work using the right runtime caching strategies. Looking to build a progressive web app? Workbox makes it easy to create an offline first experience. Workbox is a library that bakes in a set of best practices and removes the boilerplate every developer writes when working with service workers. Precaching, runtime caching, strategies, request routing, background sync, and helpful debugging. Wish you could rely on Google Fonts being available offline after the user has visited your site? Add a quick rule to serve them from the cache. Make your JS and CSS fast by returning the assets from the cache, while making sure they are updated in the background for the next use. -

HTML Onlive Debugger
Realtime preview for designers and developers.
When I got my first Android tablet; I realized how much web design and development were such a tedious process for a large majority of tablet and smart phone users. I found no applications available in Google Play that enabled live code debugging which gave me the incentive to develop one myself. After purchasing Google's developer fee, as well as AIDE I then released on Google Play for all to use.
