SCons
A software construction tool
SCons is a software construction tool that is a superior alternative to the classic "Make" build tool that we all know and love. SCons is implemented as a Python script and set of modules, and SCons "configuration files" are actually executed as Python scripts. This gives SCons many powerful capabilities not found in other software build tools. We make SCons available in three distinct packages, for different purposes. - The scons package is the basic package to install SCons. You don't need any other package if you just want to try out SCons. - The scons-local package executes as a SCons standalone, out of a local directory. It's intended to be dropped in to and shipped with packages of other software for builds with SCons but not as a required install. - The scons-src package is the complete source tree, including everything we use to package SCons and all of the regression tests. -

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. -

Simple DLL Injector
tiny tool to inject DLLs into Windows processes
Simple DLL Injector is a lightweight and easy-to-use Windows tool for injecting custom DLL files into running processes. It uses common Windows API functions like CreateRemoteThread and LoadLibrary to load external code into target applications, enabling debugging, testing, or modification of software behavior. The injector features a clean interface supporting DLL file browsing, process selection by name or ID, and maintains a history of injected DLLs for convenience. Additional options include "always on top" window mode and automatic exit after injection to streamline workflows. This tool is favored by developers and reverse engineers for its simplicity, efficiency, and minimal resource usage in various software development and analysis tasks. -

MTProxy
Simple MT-Proto proxy
MTProxy is Telegram’s official MTProto proxy server implementation that enables users to create and run proxy nodes for the Telegram messaging platform, helping people connect securely and reliably when direct access to Telegram is restricted or blocked. It implements the MTProto proxy protocol, which obfuscates encrypted Telegram traffic so it appears indistinguishable from normal HTTPS/TLS flows, making it harder for ISPs or authorities to detect and block Telegram traffic based on signatures. The repository includes C source code, build instructions, and configuration files for compiling and running the proxy on Unix-like systems, with dependencies including OpenSSL and zlib. By launching an MTProxy instance with a secret and configuration file, system administrators can allow clients to connect through custom proxies and generate shareable proxy links for Telegram clients. -

zero-native
Build desktop + mobile apps with Zig and web UI
zero-native is a Zig-based native app shell for building desktop and mobile applications with web user interfaces. It lets developers use modern frontend frameworks while keeping the native layer small, fast, and close to the operating system. The project supports lightweight system WebView rendering for smaller binaries, while also offering Chromium through CEF when predictable rendering is more important. Its Zig foundation enables fast native rebuilds and direct access to platform SDKs, native libraries, codecs, and local integrations. The app model includes a manifest for metadata, icons, windows, frontend assets, engine selection, security policy, bridge permissions, and packaging inputs. It is still pre-release, but it provides a promising path for developers who want web UI productivity with a leaner native runtime than heavier desktop frameworks. -

MSBuild
The Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild) build platform for .NET and VS
The Microsoft Build Engine is a platform for building applications. This engine, which is also known as MSBuild, provides an XML schema for a project file that controls how the build platform processes and builds software. Visual Studio uses MSBuild, but MSBuild doesn't depend on Visual Studio. By invoking msbuild.exe on your project or solution file, you can orchestrate and build products in environments where Visual Studio isn't installed. Visual Studio uses MSBuild to load and build managed projects. The project files in Visual Studio (.csproj, .vbproj, .vcxproj, and others) contain MSBuild XML code that executes when you build a project by using the IDE. Visual Studio projects import all the necessary settings and build processes to do typical development work, but you can extend or modify them from within Visual Studio or by using an XML editor. Starting with Visual Studio 2022, when you build in Visual Studio, the 64-bit version of MSBuild is used. -
