Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework is a comprehensive penetration-testing and exploit development platform that streamlines the process of discovering, validating, and demonstrating vulnerabilities. It provides a modular architecture—payloads, encoders, exploits, auxiliaries, and post-exploitation modules—so security professionals can piece together complex attack chains or test defensive controls in realistic ways. Built-in features include an exploit database, network scanners, credential harvesters, and frameworks to craft reliable payload delivery while handling target nuances like mitigation bypasses and platform differences. Beyond raw exploitation, the framework includes post-exploitation tooling for lateral movement, persistence, data exfiltration simulations, and evidence collection, enabling red teams to exercise detection and incident response workflows. -

StimulusReflex
Build reactive applications with the Rails tooling you already know
StimulusReflex is a Ruby on Rails framework for building reactive, real-time web interfaces without moving most application logic into a heavy frontend framework. It connects Stimulus controllers, Rails server-side actions, Action Cable, and CableReady to respond to user interactions over WebSockets. When a user clicks, types, submits, or triggers another event, the server processes the action and sends DOM updates back to the browser. This lets developers keep validation, persistence, authorization, and state changes close to their existing Rails code. The project is useful for dashboards, forms, admin tools, collaborative interfaces, and dynamic Rails applications that need fast updates with less JavaScript. It is best suited for Rails teams that prefer server-driven interactivity while still delivering a modern, responsive user experience. -

FORTRAN Unit Test Framework (FRUIT)
FORTRAN Unit Test Framework FRUIT - TDD in FORTRAN
FORTRAN Unit Test Framework, written in FORTRAN 95. So that all FORTRAN features can be tested. FRUIT has assertion, fixture, setup, teardown, report, spec, driver generation. Rake used as build tool. Tutorials at http://fortranxunit.wiki.sourceforge.net The core testing part is in FORTRAN, this part can be used independent of the Ruby codes. The Ruby code is to make fixtures and reports easier. Rake is to build the project elegantly. This project also demonstrate a new way to build mixed language code in an alternative way than Make. Most of the FORTRAN are important in nature, used in nuclear and aerospace codes, etc, and maintained and written actively. Please help to bring TDD practices to the FORTRAN community. The change could be very hard, personally, I quit, since I could not make the change. I hope your organization will be successful. Enjoy a cup of fruit while maintaining FORTRAN !

Active Admin
The administration framework for Ruby on Rails applications
Active Admin is a Ruby on Rails plugin for generating administration style interfaces. It abstracts common business application patterns to make it simple for developers to implement beautiful and elegant interfaces with very little effort. Customizable global navigation allows you to create usable admin interfaces for your business. Use the bundled Devise configuration or implement your own authorization using the provided hooks. Use scopes to create sections of mutually exclusive resources for quick navigation and reporting. Add buttons, links or other content in the “Action Items” section on each screen. Index screens are available in many styles. The default, shown here, is a table view, but Active Admin also supports Grids, Blocks and a Blog view. Allow users to filter resources by searching strings, text fields, dates, and numeric values. Customize the sidebar sections with a simple DSL built in to Active Admin. -

bootstrap_form
Repository of the bootstrap_form gem
Official repository of the bootstrap_form gem, a Rails form builder that makes it super easy to create beautiful-looking forms using Bootstrap 5. bootstrap_form is a Rails form builder that makes it super easy to integrate Bootstrap v5-style forms into your Rails application. It provides form helpers that augment the Rails form helpers. bootstrap_forms's form helpers generate the form field and its label and all the Bootstrap mark-up required for proper Bootstrap display. bootstrap_form. You can also put the error messages after the label, or turn off bootstrap_form's validation error handling and do it yourself. Note that this applies to Rails-generated validation messages. HTML 5 client-side validation and Rails validation out of the box doesn't really work well together. Mark-up for Bootstrap horizontal forms (labels to the left of their fields, like a traditional desktop application), if that's what you want. -

Hanami
A flexible framework for maintainable Ruby apps
Hanami is a modern Ruby web framework that aims to be lightweight, fast, and modular, in contrast to the monolithic design of Rails. It emphasizes separation of concerns, encouraging developers to structure applications into clear layers of controllers, views, entities, and repositories. Each component—like the router, model layer, or view rendering engine—can be used independently, which gives developers flexibility to build lean applications. Hanami promotes immutability, plain old Ruby objects, and minimized global state, which makes codebases more maintainable and testable. It supports multi-application setups within the same project, making it well-suited for larger service-oriented architectures. The framework is designed to provide Rails-like productivity while encouraging more explicit architecture and performance-conscious choices. -

DuckRails
Development tool to mock API endpoints quickly
DuckRails is a development tool. Its main purpose is to allow developers to quickly mock API endpoints that for many possible reasons they can't reach at a specific time. The application allows creating new routes dynamically to which developers can assign static or dynamic responses. DuckRails is an open source development tool built using the Ruby on Rails framework. The purpose of the tool is to allow developers to easily mock API endpoints outside their applications. Knowing ruby is not required. It would just help you define ruby dynamic mocks easier (embedded ruby). No worries, you can still define dynamic responses by selecting Javascript as the mock’s body type. Instead of defining a mock to always respond with some static content, you can also configure it to dynamically resolve the content to serve. For example, you can access the original request’s parameters and headers and decide how you could respond. -

RSpec Rails
RSpec for Rails 5+
RSpec Rails brings the RSpec testing framework to Ruby on Rails as a drop-in alternative to its default testing framework, Minitest. In RSpec, tests are not just scripts that verify your application code. They’re also specifications (or specs, for short): detailed explanations of how the application is supposed to behave, expressed in plain English. RSpec follows semantic versioning, which means that “major version” upgrades (e.g., 2.x → 3.x) come with breaking changes. If you’re upgrading from version 2.x or below, read the rspec-rails upgrade notes to find out what to watch out for. In RSpec, assertions are called expectations, and every expectation is built around a matcher. When you expect(a).to eq(b), you’re using the eq matcher. RSpec Rails defines ten different types of specs for testing different parts of a typical Rails application. Each one inherits from one of Rails’ built-in TestCase classes, meaning the helper methods provided by default in Rails tests are available. -

Blueprint CSS
A CSS framework that aims to cut down on your CSS development time
Blueprint CSS is a CSS framework aimed at accelerating layout and typographic design by providing robust base styles, grid systems, and reusable UI components. It combines normalized defaults with helpful utilities—such as column layouts, form styling, and typography helpers—so developers can build responsive sites with less repetitive CSS. Because it’s designed as a structural foundation rather than a themed UI kit, it’s easy to layer branding and custom design on top without fighting the base styles. The framework includes mixins, modifier classes, and responsive breakpoints so layouts adapt fluidly across screen sizes. By starting with a consistent baseline, Blueprint CSS reduces cross-browser quirks and gives designers confidence in spacing, proportion, and element alignment. Teams often use it as the “CSS backbone” of internal tools, web products, or component libraries. -
