    Termux packages

    Termux packages

    A build system and primary set of packages for Termux

    Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app that works directly with no rooting or setup required. A minimal base system is installed automatically - additional packages are available using the APT package manager. Access remote servers using the ssh client from OpenSSH. Termux combines standard packages with accurate terminal emulation in a beautiful open source solution. Take your pick between Bash, fish or Zsh and nano, Emacs or Vim. Grep through your SMS inbox. Access API endpoints with curl and use rsync to store backups of your contact list on a remote server. Install what you want through the APT package management system known from Debian and Ubuntu GNU/Linux. Why not start with installing Git and syncing your dotfiles? Have you ever sat on a bus and wondered exactly which arguments tar accepts? Packages available in Termux are the same as those on Mac and Linux, install man pages on your phone and read them in one session.

    Featureless Linux Library

    Featureless Linux Library

    Linux Library on top of Libc focusing on long term support.

    When computer power increases, programmers generally add more "features", thus making any performance gains in new hardware negligible. This project is an attempt to develop a library above libc that breaks out of this terrible loop.

For other methods to install GitLab please refer to the Official GitLab Installation Guide which includes a GitLab image for Docker. Docker is a relatively new project and is active being developed and tested by a thriving community of developers and testers and every release of docker features many enhancements and bugfixes. Given the nature of the development and release cycle it is very important that you have the latest version of docker installed because any issue that you encounter might have already been fixed with a newer docker release. Install the most recent version of the Docker Engine for your platform using the official Docker releases.

    A modern cmake starter project for C++ with a complete build lifecycle

    A modern cmake starter project for C++ with a complete build lifecycle, testing, dependency management, etc. Portable across Linux, OS X and Windows. Have you ever found yourself spending countless hours trying to figure out how to start a professional C++ project with unit tests, a robust dev workflow, change logs, code coverage, linting, formatting...? The C++ ecosystem is getting better but is still very far away from other ecosystems such as JavaScript, or even Rust. It's certainly easy to use CMake, a compiler and vscode to start a hello world project, but as soon as you start having multiple modules, with third party dependencies, testing, coverage, and other development things that a professional quality project needs, you start wasting hours and hours troubleshooting and configuring until you make it work. This starter project solves most of your problems, using the best practices for C++ development and modern CMake and allows you to get started in minutes rather than days.

    Reflex Platform

    Reflex Platform

    A curated package set and set of tools that let you build Haskell

    Reflex Platform is a curated package set and set of tools that let you build Haskell packages so they can run on a variety of platforms. Reflex Platform is built on top of the nix package manager. The core packages in Reflex Platform are known to work together and are tested together. the core packages in Reflex Platform are cached so you can download prebuilt binaries from the public cache instead of building from scratch. Nix locks down dependencies even outside the Haskell ecosystem (e.g., versions of C libraries that the Haskell code depends on), so you get completely reproducible builds. Reflex Platform is designed to target iOS and Android on mobile, JavaScript on the web, and Linux and macOS on desktop. It's Haskell, everywhere. Reflex Platform comes packaged with tools to make development easier, like a hoogle server that you can run locally to look up definitions.

    Decision Table Preprocessor

    Decision Table Preprocessor

    Ccide is a Decision Table preprocessor.

    Ccide reads a source program, in one of several programming languages, expands all embedded decision tables, and generates the new, expanded source. Ccidew processes C language programs directly. The script, ccide, uses ccidew and m4, to process BASIC, JAVA, CC, C++, BASH, QB, VB, and EX(euphoria), source files containing embedded decision tables. Ccide checks all conditions once and only once, avoiding side effects. Ccide checks tables for conflicts and other errors. Input example: //DECISION_TABLE: // 1 3 2 2 | light == $$ /* 1=red, 2= yellow, 3=green. */ // N - - - | speed == STOPPED // - - Y - | speed == SLOW // - N - Y | speed == FAST // ______|___________________ // X - X - | Stop(); // - - - X | SlowDown(); // - X - - | SpeedUp(); //END_TABLE:
