Notepads
A modern, lightweight text editor with a minimalist design
I have been waiting long enough for a modern Windows 10 notepad app to come before I decided to create one myself. Don’t get me wrong, Notepad++, VS Code, and Sublime are great text editors. I have used them all and I will continue to use them in the future. However, they are either too heavy or look less appealing. There are times that I just wanted to use Windows Notepad for things like writing notes or editing config files. So I decided to create a win32 notepad replacement here and try to give it a modern look and feel. Most importantly, it has to be blazingly fast and appeal to everyone. -

An editor designed for Swagger
Swagger Editor lets you edit Swagger API specifications in YAML inside your browser and to preview documentations in real time. Valid Swagger JSON descriptions can then be generated and used with the full Swagger tooling (code generation, documentation, etc). swagger-editor is a traditional npm module intended for use in single-page applications that are capable of resolving dependencies (via Webpack, Browserify, etc). swagger-editor-dist is a dependency-free module that includes everything you need to serve Swagger Editor in a server-side project, or a web project that can't resolve npm module dependencies. If you're building a single-page application, using swagger-editor is strongly recommended, since swagger-editor-dist is significantly larger. -

Monaco Editor
A browser based code editor
Monaco Editor is the rich, browser-based code editor that powers Visual Studio Code, providing advanced editing capabilities as a standalone embeddable library for web applications. Models are at the heart of Monaco editor. It's what you interact with when managing content. A model represents a file that has been opened. This could represent a file that exists on a file system, but it doesn't have to. For example, the model holds the text content, determines the language of the content, and tracks the edit history of the content. An editor is a user facing view of the model. This is what gets attached to the DOM and what your users see visually. Typical editor operations are displaying a model, managing the view state, or executing actions or commands. -

We found other Neovim configurations either being powerful out of the box but hard to customize, or easy to customize but minimal out of the box functionality. AstroNvim aims to find the middle ground with a great out of the box experience while empowering the user to make tweaks where they want. -

Copybara is an open source code transformation and migration tool developed by Google for synchronizing and managing source code across multiple repositories. It allows developers to transform, filter, and move code between repositories while maintaining a consistent source of truth. Copybara is particularly useful in workflows where projects maintain both confidential (internal) and public (open source) repositories, enabling controlled synchronization and contribution management between them. The tool supports advanced transformations—such as file relocation, content replacement, and metadata adjustments—defined declaratively in configuration files. It operates in a stateless manner, storing synchronization state within commit metadata to ensure reproducibility and collaboration among multiple users. Copybara currently supports Git repositories (with experimental Mercurial support) and can be integrated with CI/CD systems or run manually. -

ToaruOS
Hobby operating system, bootloader, kernel, drivers, C library
ToaruOS is a "complete" operating system for x86-64 PCs and experimental support for ARMv8. While many independent, hobby, and research OSes aim to experiment with new designs, ToaruOS is intended as an educational resource, providing a representative microcosm of functionality found in major desktop operating systems. The OS includes a kernel, bootloader, dynamic shared object linker, C standard library, its own composited windowing system, a dynamic bytecode-compiled programming language, advanced code editor, and dozens of other utilities and example applications. There are no external runtime dependencies and all required source code, totaling roughly 100k lines of (primarily) C, is included in this repository, save for Kuroko, which lives separately. Through out the project, ToaruOS has also attracted quite a few beginner OS developers who have tried to use it as a reference.
