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. -

Knockout
Tool to create rich, responsive UIs with JavaScript
Easily associate DOM elements with model data using a concise, readable syntax. When your data model's state changes, your UI updates automatically. Implicitly set up chains of relationships between model data, to transform and combine it. Quickly generate sophisticated, nested UIs as a function of your model data. Get started with knockout.js quickly, learning to build single-page applications, custom bindings and more with interactive tutorials. Knockout is a JavaScript MVVM (a modern variant of MVC) library that makes it easier to create rich, desktop-like user interfaces with JavaScript and HTML. It uses observers to make your UI automatically stay in sync with an underlying data model, along with a powerful and extensible set of declarative bindings to enable productive development. For Node.js developers, Knockout is also available from npm. -

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. -

Inferno
React-like JavaScript library for building modern user interfaces
Inferno is an insanely fast, React-like library for building high-performance user interfaces on both the client and server. React-like API, concepts and component lifecycle events. Switch over easily with inferno-compat. One of the fastest front-end frameworks for rendering UI in the DOM, making 60 FPS on mobile possible. Isomorphic rendering on both client and server, along with fast-booting from server-side renders. Inferno doesn't have a fully synthetic event system like React does. Inferno has a partially synthetic event system, instead opting to only delegate certain events (such as `onClick`). Inferno doesn't support React Native. Inferno was only designed for the browser/server with the DOM in mind. Inferno doesn't support legacy string refs, use `createRef` or callback `ref` API. Inferno provides lifecycle events on functional components. This is a major win for people who prefer lightweight components rather than ES2015 classes. -

Relay
JavaScript framework for building data-driven React applications
Relay is data-fetching turned declarative. Components declare their data dependencies, without worrying about how to fetch them. Relay guarantees that the data each component needs is fetched and available. This keeps components decoupled and promotes reuse. With Relay, components and their data dependencies can be quickly modified without modifying other parts of the system. That means you won't accidentally break other components as you refactor or make changes to your app. Relay's compiler aggregates and optimizes the data requirements for your entire app, so that they can be efficiently fetched in a single GraphQL request. Relay handles the heavy lifting to ensure the data declared by your components is fetched in the most efficient way. For example, by deduplicating identical fields, and precomputing information used at runtime, among other optimizations. Relay also supports executing GraphQL Mutations, optionally with optimistic updates, and updates to local data. -

SuperAgent
Ajax for Node.js and browsers (JS HTTP client)
SuperAgent is light-weight progressive ajax API crafted for flexibility, readability, and a low learning curve after being frustrated with many of the existing request APIs. It also works with Node.js! Small progressive client-side HTTP request library, and Node.js module with the same API, supporting many high-level HTTP client features. Browser-ready versions of this module are available via jsdelivr, unpkg, and also in the node_modules/superagent/dist folder in downloads of the superagent package. If you are using browserify, webpack, rollup, or another bundler, then you can follow the same usage as Node. SuperAgent is easily extended via plugins. The Node client supports making requests to Unix Domain Sockets. DELETE, HEAD, PATCH, POST, and PUT requests can also be used, simply change the method name. Absolute URLs can be used. In web browsers absolute URLs work only if the server implements CORS. -

V Programming Language
Simple, fast, safe, compiled language for developing software
Simple language for building maintainable programs. You can learn the entire language by going through the documentation over a weekend, and in most cases, there's only one way to do something. This results in simple, readable, and maintainable code. Despite being simple, V gives a lot of power to the developer and can be used in pretty much every field, including systems programming, webdev, gamedev, GUI, mobile, science, embedded, tooling, etc. V avoids doing unnecessary allocations in the first place by using value types, and string buffers, promoting a simple abstraction-free code style. Most objects (~90-100%) are freed by V's auto-free engine: the compiler inserts necessary free calls automatically during compilation. A remaining small percentage of objects is freed via GC. The developer doesn't need to change anything in their code. "It just works", like in Python, Go, or Java, except there's no heavy GC tracing everything or expensive RC for each object. -

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. -

EpicReact.Dev
Build a ReactJS App workshop
EpicReact.Dev is the codebase used in the “Build an Epic React App” workshop, where participants build a complete React application from scratch. The project demonstrates how to structure a modern React app, including data modeling, authentication, routing, testing, and interaction with a backend. It uses a realistic “bookshelf” domain where users can manage lists of books, track reading status, and record notes, which provides a concrete context for learning. The repository includes setup scripts and system requirements checks for Git, Node, and npm, plus Docker and Codespaces options for people who struggle with local environments. A guided workflow, driven by a node go script and INSTRUCTIONS.md, lets learners move between exercises and extra credit steps while the repository updates the working files for each stage. Extensive tests, using Jest in watch mode, help students verify their solutions and learn how to work with test-driven feedback. -

express-session
Simple session middleware for Express
This is a Node.js module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the npm install command provided in the instructions. Create a session middleware with the given options. Session data is not saved in the cookie itself, just the session ID. Session data is stored server-side. Since version 1.5.0, the cookie-parser middleware no longer needs to be used for this module to work. This module now directly reads and writes cookies on req/res. Using cookie-parser may result in issues if the secret is not the same between this module and cookie-parser. The default server-side session storage, MemoryStore, is purposely not designed for a production environment. It will leak memory under most conditions, does not scale past a single process, and is meant for debugging and developing. -

Caramel
Functional language for building type-safe applications
Caramel is a functional language for building type-safe, scalable, and maintainable applications. It is built in OCaml and maintained by Abstract Machines. Caramel leverages the OCaml compiler, to provide you with a pragmatic type system and industrial-strength type safety, and the Erlang VM, known for running low-latency, distributed, and fault-tolerant systems used in a wide range of industries. Excellent type inference, so you never need to annotate your code. Supports sources in OCaml (and soon Reason syntax too). Caramel aims to make building type-safe concurrent programs a productive and fun experience. Caramel should let anyone with existing OCaml or Reason experience be up and running without having to relearn the entire language. Caramel strives to integrate with the larger ecosystem of BEAM languages, like Erlang, Elixir, Gleam, Purerl, LFE, and Hamler. -

Initializr
HTML5 Boilerplate Build Tool
Initializr is an HTML5 Boilerplate build tool that generates customized starter packages for front-end web projects. Its HTTP API can either download a generated archive or display its contents for inspection. Projects are assembled from modules representing code snippets, JavaScript libraries, files, and other optional components. Developers select modules by adding their identifiers as request parameters to the builder URL. Each module uses JSON metadata to define its name, author, inserted content, destination, and incompatible alternatives. This lets the generator combine technologies such as Modernizr without manually editing the underlying template. The repository represents an older generation of web tooling but remains a useful example of modular project scaffolding. -
17
Marked
A markdown parser and compiler. Built for speed
A low-level markdown compiler for parsing markdown without caching or blocking for long periods of time. Light-weight while implementing all markdown features from the supported flavors & specifications. Available as a command-line interface (CLI) and running in client- or server-side JavaScript projects. The only completely secure system is the one that doesn't exist in the first place. Having said that, we take the security of Marked very seriously. To prevent ReDoS attacks you can run marked on a worker and terminate it when parsing takes longer than usual. Marked can be run in a worker thread on a node server, or a web worker in a browser. Only current and LTS Node.js versions are supported. End-of-life Node.js versions may become incompatible with Marked at any point in time. -

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. -

Sass
An extension of CSS, adding nested rules, variables, mixins and more
Sass is the most mature, stable, and powerful professional grade CSS extension language in the world. Sass is completely compatible with all versions of CSS. We take this compatibility seriously, so that you can seamlessly use any available CSS libraries. Sass boasts more features and abilities than any other CSS extension language out there. The Sass Core Team has worked endlessly to not only keep up, but stay ahead. Sass has been actively supported for over 14 years by its loving Core Team. Over and over again, the industry is choosing Sass as the premier CSS extension language. Sass is actively supported and developed by a consortium of several tech companies and hundreds of developers. There are an endless number of frameworks built with Sass. Compass, Bourbon, and Susy just to name a few. -

Vulcan
A toolkit to quickly build apps with React, GraphQL & Meteor
Vulcan is a framework that gives you a set of tools for quickly building React & GraphQL-based web applications. It can handle data loading, e-mail notifications, automatic form generation, and much more, out of the box. Vulcan is unique in that it spans the full-stack, from the database to the browser. While there exist many excellent back-end frameworks or backend-as-a-service providers, these all still require you to handle the front-end code yourself, including building a set of components to read, write, and display data. However, being full-stack, Vulcan is able to speed up these repetitive tasks by providing a whole range of helper components that are fine-tuned to the Vulcan back-end, and as a result just work out of the box. In order to make working with Vulcan easier (especially when it comes to updating the core packages), you are also free to follow the more complicated “two-repo” pattern, with the two repositories. -
