FineTune
FineTune, a macOS menu bar app to control volume for each app
FineTune is a macOS menu bar application that gives users fine-grained control over system audio by allowing them to adjust volume levels for individual applications independently, route audio streams to different output devices, and apply personalized equalizer settings. It fills a gap in macOS audio control by providing more advanced routing and audio shaping capabilities than the default system controls, making it useful for power users, audio professionals, and anyone needing precise management of their sound environment. Through a clean, minimal interface accessible from the menu bar, FineTune lets users isolate and balance application volumes, assign specific outputs (like headphones versus speakers), and tweak equalization to enhance or tailor audio based on content or personal preference. Its integration into the OS workflow means that these adjustments persist across sessions and respect the user’s choices without requiring constant interaction with deeper system settings. -

WhiteSur GTK Theme
MacOS like theme for all gtk based desktops
WhiteSur-gtk-theme brings a macOS Big Sur–inspired look to Linux desktops by providing a polished GTK theme with light and dark variants, rounded shapes, and refined translucency. It includes assets and installer scripts to apply the theme across GTK applications and desktop shells that support GTK theming, aiming for a cohesive, high-contrast interface. The project pays attention to details like window controls, titlebars, selection states, and widget hover effects so apps feel consistent from toolkits to system settings. Configuration options typically allow tweaking accents and choosing variants that match different desktop environments and icon sets. Documentation guides users through installing prerequisites, applying the theme, and resolving common edge cases across distributions. For Linux users who prefer Apple’s visual style but want open platforms, WhiteSur offers a maintained, community-driven path to a modern, visually unified desktop. -

Thaw
Menu bar manager for macOS 26
Thaw is a macOS menu bar management app focused on hiding, showing, and organizing menu bar items, with the broader goal of being a versatile customization toolkit rather than a single-purpose hider. It is a fork of the Ice project created to keep the concept actively maintained, fix bugs, and stay compatible with the latest macOS releases, especially newer versions where menu bar behavior and APIs have changed. At its core, Thaw provides multiple ways to reveal hidden items (hover, click empty space, scroll or swipe) and can automatically rehide items to keep the menu bar clean without constant manual toggling. It also supports a dedicated “always-hidden” section, drag-and-drop arrangement of items, and options to display hidden items in a separate bar, which can be particularly useful on MacBooks with notches. -

It includes a broad selection of icons for many popular applications, utilities, and system features, ensuring most graphical elements on your desktop adopt the unified appearance. The theme is designed to integrate seamlessly with GTK- and icon-themed desktops, helping users achieve a consistent aesthetic across panels, launchers, and app menus. Installation scripts provide easy methods to deploy the icons into your system or local user directory, and options let you tweak the icon style or destination. Because it mimics a well-known visual design, it’s particularly popular among users who want to bring macOS-like polish to their Linux desktops without sacrificing performance. -

The design language that makes your AI harness better at design
Impeccable is a design skill system that helps AI coding tools produce better frontend interfaces by giving them a richer design vocabulary. It provides one comprehensive skill, multiple commands, and curated reference files covering typography, color, motion, spacing, interaction, responsive design, and UX writing. The project is built to counter common AI-generated design habits such as generic SaaS layouts, overused fonts, nested cards, weak hierarchy, and predictable gradients. It can be installed across several AI coding environments, including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, and others. Impeccable also includes deterministic anti-pattern detection through a CLI and browser extension without requiring an API key. It is most useful for developers and designers who want AI-generated interfaces to feel more polished, intentional, and product-aware. -

SkyWater PDK
Open source process design kit for usage with SkyWater Technology
The SkyWater PDK is the first broadly available open-source process design kit for a commercial-grade CMOS node, enabling researchers, startups, and students to design real ASICs without proprietary NDAs. It provides the essential artifacts for digital and analog flows: SPICE models, DRC/LVS rules, extraction decks, and technology files for open tools like Magic and KLayout. Standard-cell libraries and IO pads are included so digital designers can use open synthesis and place-and-route to reach a manufacturable GDS. Because the PDK is open, it becomes a common target for community reference designs, open tapeouts, and teaching curricula. Documentation and example flows show how to assemble complete toolchains, from RTL to sign-off, using open EDA components. The project effectively lowers the barrier to custom silicon, catalyzing an ecosystem around an accessible 130-nm process. -

react-fullpage
Official React.js wrapper for fullPage.js
react-fullpage is the official React wrapper for fullPage.js, providing a component that brings full-screen, section-by-section scrolling layouts into React applications. The wrapper uses a render-prop API, where you pass a render function that receives component state and the fullpageApi, allowing you to build React JSX markup while delegating scroll behavior to fullPage.js under the hood. It is distributed in multiple formats, including a standard ES module and a UMD bundle, so it can be used in projects with or without a modern build step. The library supports server-side rendering scenarios (such as Next.js and Gatsby) by returning a static version when window is not available and then hydrating into the “live” interactive version on the client. Documentation includes examples for plain React, Gatsby, and Next.js, showing how to configure license keys, scrolling speed, callbacks, and plugin extensions such as horizontal scrolling. -

Vorssaint
Free open-source macOS menu bar toolkit
Vorssaint is a free and open-source macOS menu bar toolkit that combines many everyday utility features into one app. It includes tools that would usually require several separate paid applications. The app provides per-app volume control, system monitoring, network monitoring, window controls, clipboard history, a file shelf, app uninstalling, link cleaning, keep-awake controls, and other quality-of-life features. It is designed to be local-first, with network access limited to user-visible actions such as update checks, speed tests, and Homebrew operations. Most tools can be enabled or hidden individually, so users can keep the menu bar setup lightweight. Overall, it is a practical all-in-one utility app for Mac users who want more control without juggling many small tools. -
