BentoPDF
A Privacy First PDF Toolkit
BentoPDF is a self-hosted, open-source PDF toolkit that provides a suite of local PDF manipulation features for users who want full control over their documents without relying on cloud PDF services. It offers functionality to merge, split, compress, rotate, and convert PDFs through an easy-to-deploy container or local installation, making it ideal for individuals and teams that handle large volumes of PDF files regularly. Because it runs entirely on your own system or server, BentoPDF helps ensure that sensitive documents never leave your environment — a critical consideration for privacy-conscious users or organizations with strict data policies. Its design aims to balance robust feature coverage with a simple setup process, typically involving a Docker image so you can start using the toolkit with minimal configuration. BentoPDF also supports automation via command line parameters or API calls, so it can be integrated into batch workflows or document pipelines. -

jq
Lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor
jq is like sed for JSON data - you can use it to slice, filter, map and transform structured data with the same ease that sed, awk, grep and friends let you play with text. jq is written in portable C, and it has zero runtime dependencies. You can download a single binary, scp it to a far away machine of the same type, and expect it to work. jq can mangle the data format that you have into the one that you want with very little effort, and the program to do so is often shorter and simpler than you'd expect. Data in jq is represented as streams of JSON values - every jq expression runs for each value in its input stream, and can produce any number of values to its output stream. jq filters run on a stream of JSON data. The input to jq is parsed as a sequence of whitespace-separated JSON values which are passed through the provided filter one at a time. The output(s) of the filter are written to standard out, again as a sequence of whitespace-separated JSON data. -

Pandoc
The universal markup converter
Pandoc is a universal document converter able to convert files from a multitude of markup formats into another. With Pandoc, you have a swiss-army knife of a converter, able to convert practically any markup format into any other. Pandoc contains a Haskell library for conversions as well as a command-line tool that uses this library. It can convert to and from just about anything-- lightweight markup formats, HTML formats, documentation formats, ebooks, TeX formats, word processor formats and so much more. It understands several useful markdown syntax extensions, such as document metadata, footnotes, tables, and more. If you want strict markdown compatibility however, these extensions can be turned off. Pandoc is no doubt powerful and customizable, but it is important to note that its intermediate representation of a document is less expressive than many of the formats, so it may not produce perfect conversions every time. -

TeXtidote
Spelling, grammar and style checking on LaTeX documents
If so, you probably know that the process is far from simple. Since LaTeX documents contain special commands and keywords (the so-called "markup") that are not part of the "real" text, you cannot run a grammar checker directly on these files: it cannot tell the difference between markup and text. The other option is to remove all this markup, leaving only the "clear" text; however, when a grammar tool points to a problem at a specific line in this clear text, it becomes hard to retrace that location in the original LaTeX file. TeXtidote solves this problem; it can read your original LaTeX file and perform various sanity checks on it: for example, making sure that every figure is referenced in the text, enforcing the correct capitalization of titles, etc. In addition, TeXtidote can remove markup from the file and send it to the Language Tool library, which performs verification of both spelling and grammar in a dozen languages. -

Import YAML/JSON-formatted configuration files into Keycloak
keycloak-config-cli is a Keycloak utility to ensure the desired configuration state for a realm based on a JSON/YAML file. The format of the JSON/YAML file is based on the export realm format.

Google Photos Takeout Helper
Script that organizes the Google Takeout archive
If you ever want to move from Google Photos to another platform/solution, your fastest choice to export all photos is Google Takeout. But when you download it, you will find yourself with zips with hundreds of little folders with weird .json files inside. What if you want to just have one folder with all photos, in chronological order? Good luck copying all of that. -

wkhtmltopdf
Convert HTML to PDF using Webkit (QtWebKit)
wkhtmltopdf and wkhtmltoimage are open source (LGPLv3) command line tools to render HTML into PDF and various image formats using the Qt WebKit rendering engine. These run entirely "headless" and do not require a display or display service. There is also a C library, if you're into that kind of thing. The file pdf.h contains a fairly high level and stable pure c binding to wkhtmltopdf. These binding are well documented and do not depend on QT. Using this is the recommended way of interfacing with the PDF portion of libwkhtmltox. The rest of the headers directly exposes the C++ QT dependent class used internally by wkhtmltopdf and wkhtmltoimage. wkhtmltopdf is able to put several objects into the output file, an object is either a single webpage, a cover webpage or a table of contents. The objects are put into the output document in the order they are specified on the command line, options can be specified on a per object basis or in the global options area. -

pdfcpu
A PDF processor written in Go
pdfcpu is a PDF processing library written in Go supporting encryption. It provides both an API and a CLI. Supported are all versions up to PDF 1.7 (ISO-32000). This is an effort to build a comprehensive PDF processing library from the ground up written in Go. Over time pdfcpu aims to support the standard range of PDF processing features and also any interesting use cases that may present themselves along the way. The main focus lies on strong support for batch processing and scripting via a rich command line. At the same time pdfcpu wants to make it easy to integrate PDF processing into your Go-based backend system by providing a robust command set. Always make sure your work is based on the latest commit! pdfcpu is still Alpha - bugfixes are committed on the fly and will be mentioned in the next release notes.
