linuxdeployqt
Makes Linux applications self-contained by copying in the libraries
Makes Linux applications self-contained by copying in the libraries and plugins that the application uses, and optionally generates an AppImage. Can be used for Qt and other applications. This Linux Deployment Tool, linuxdeployqt, takes an application as input and makes it self-contained by copying in the resources that the application uses (like libraries, graphics, and plugins) into a bundle. The resulting bundle can be distributed as an AppDir or as an AppImage to users, or can be put into cross-distribution packages. It can be used as part of the build process to deploy applications written in C, C++, and other compiled languages with systems like CMake, qmake, and make. When used on Qt-based applications, it can bundle a specific minimal subset of Qt required to run the application. This tool is conceptually based on the Mac Deployment Tool, macdeployqt in the tools applications of the Qt Toolkit, but has been changed to a slightly different logic. -

kube-bench
Checks whether Kubernetes is deployed
kube-bench is a tool that checks whether Kubernetes is deployed securely by running the checks documented in the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark. Trivy, the all-in-one cloud-native security scanner, can be deployed as a Kubernetes Operator inside a cluster. Both, the Trivy CLI, and the Trivy Operator support CIS Kubernetes Benchmark scanning among several other features. There are multiple ways to run kube-bench. You can run kube-bench inside a pod, but it will need access to the host's PID namespace in order to check the running processes, as well as access to some directories on the host where config files and other files are stored. -

Argo CD
Declarative continuous deployment for Kubernetes
Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. Application definitions, configurations, and environments should be declarative and version controlled. Application deployment and lifecycle management should be automated, auditable, and easy to understand. Argo CD follows the GitOps pattern of using Git repositories as the source of truth for defining the desired application state. Argo CD automates the deployment of the desired application states in the specified target environments. Application deployments can track updates to branches, tags, or pinned to a specific version of manifests at a Git commit. See tracking strategies for additional details about the different tracking strategies available. Argo CD is implemented as a kubernetes controller which continuously monitors running applications and compares the current, live state against the desired target state (as specified in the Git repo). -

Buildbot
Python-based continuous integration testing framework
Buildbot is an open-source framework for automating software build, test, and release processes. At its core, Buildbot is a job scheduling system: it queues jobs, executes the jobs when the required resources are available, and reports the results. Your Buildbot installation has one or more masters and a collection of workers. The masters monitor source-code repositories for changes, coordinate the activities of the workers, and report results to users and developers. Workers run on a variety of operating systems. You configure Buildbot by providing a Python configuration script to the master. This script can be very simple, configuring built-in components, but the full expressive power of Python is available. This allows dynamic generation of configuration, customized components, and anything else you can devise. The framework itself is implemented in Twisted Python, and compatible with all major operating systems. -

Dockge
A fancy, easy-to-use and reactive self-hosted docker compose.yaml
Dockge is a self-hosted, stack-oriented manager for Docker Compose files designed to simplify container management with a modern web interface. Instead of treating each container individually, it focuses on stacks defined by docker-compose.yaml files, allowing users to create, edit, start, stop, restart, and delete entire stacks through a UI rather than via CLI only. The tool preserves the stack files on disk (rather than hiding them inside a database), so users retain full flexibility to inspect and manage via normal Docker commands. It also supports multiple agents across different Docker hosts, enabling one unified UI to control stacks on multiple servers. The interface is reactive and real-time: progress bars show pulling, starting, and updating operations, and a built-in web terminal allows direct interaction. -

Hypermind
The high-availability solution to a problem that doesn't exist
Hypermind is a whimsical yet technically intriguing decentralized application that combines a peer-to-peer (P2P) network counter with ephemeral chat functionality, built to “solve” the meta-problem of tracking how many peers are running its container in a decentralized mesh. There’s no central server or database; instead, Hypermind leverages a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) using Hyperswarm to discover peers and maintain approximate counts of active nodes, architected to be a fully decentralized service. Alongside counting nodes, the project also supports ephemeral chat over its mesh network, allowing users to send messages directly to local peers or broadcast via a gossip protocol without storing chat history. The project uses probabilistic data structures like HyperLogLog for efficient estimation of unique peers and provides real-time visualizations and themes for exploring the swarm. -

Lerna
A tool for managing JavaScript projects with multiple packages
Lerna is a tool for managing JavaScript projects with multiple packages. Many times splitting a large codebase into several independently versioned packages is necessary for code sharing. However, this can make testing and tracking changes across repositories quite difficult. As a solution to this, many projects organize their codebases into multi-package repositories. It is Lerna's job to manage these multi-package repositories, optimizing workflow and reducing the time and space requirements for numerous copies of packages in development and build environments. Lerna's primary functionalities are bootstrap, which links dependencies in the repo together; and publish, which helps publish any updated packages. It is important to note that Lerna is not a deployment tool for serverless monorepos. -

flagger
Progressive delivery Kubernetes operator (Canary, A/B Testing)
Flagger is a progressive delivery tool that automates the release process for applications running on Kubernetes. It reduces the risk of introducing a new software version in production by gradually shifting traffic to the new version while measuring metrics and running conformance tests. Flagger implements several deployment strategies (Canary releases, A/B testing, Blue/Green mirroring) using a service mesh (App Mesh, Istio, Linkerd, Kuma, Open Service Mesh) or an ingress controller (Contour, Gloo, NGINX, Skipper, Traefik, APISIX) for traffic routing. For release analysis, Flagger can query Prometheus, InfluxDB, Datadog, New Relic, CloudWatch, Stackdriver or Graphite and for alerting it uses Slack, MS Teams, Discord, and Rocket. Flagger can be configured with Kubernetes custom resources and is compatible with any CI/CD solutions made for Kubernetes. Since Flagger is declarative and reacts to Kubernetes events, it can be used in GitOps pipelines together with tools like Flux. -
