Combine internet connections, increase your download speed
dispatch-proxy is a Node.js tool that exposes a local proxy and distributes outgoing connections across multiple network interfaces to combine bandwidth for parallel transfers. Instead of trying to accelerate a single TCP flow, it improves aggregate throughput by load-balancing many connections—useful for download managers, package managers, or browsers that open multiple requests at once.
Shadowsocks GUI client provides a graphical interface for configuring and running Shadowsocks, an encrypted proxy, on desktop systems. For Windows, upgrade to Shadowsocks for Windows.
Shadowsocks-Nodejs is a Node.js implementation of the Shadowsocks proxy protocol, providing server and client components that let users create an encrypted proxy tunnel to bypass network filtering and protect traffic in transit. The project reimplements the lightweight, stream-oriented Shadowsocks protocol in JavaScript so operators can run servers and clients using Node.js environments rather than native binaries or Python ports.
Camo is a lightweight Node.js HTTP proxy that serves insecure (HTTP) images over HTTPS, eliminating mixed-content warnings on secure webpages. It authenticates request URLs via HMAC, allowing admins to cache-bust or block content, and supports whitelisting by MIME type. Originally built by atmos for GitHub comments, it's now archived but continues to be used and forked (e.g., camo.cr).
