CycleGAN
Software that can generate photos from paintings
CycleGAN — in its original form — is a landmark in deep learning for image-to-image translation without paired data. Rather than requiring matching image pairs between source and target domains (which are often hard or impossible to obtain), CycleGAN learns two mappings — one from domain A to B, and another back from B to A — along with a cycle-consistency loss that encourages the round-trip to reconstruct the original image. This innovation lets the model learn domain-to-domain translations like turning horses into zebras, changing seasons, or transforming photos into paintings, using only collections of images from each domain. The original implementation (in Torch) has since been complemented by other re-implementations (including in PyTorch), but the core idea remains: unpaired image-to-image translation. Because of its flexibility, CycleGAN has become one of the most widely adopted generative models for domain translation tasks. -

Fennel
Lua Lisp Language
Fennel is a programming language that brings together the speed, simplicity and reach of Lua with the flexibility of a lisp syntax and macro system. Full Lua compatibility: Easily call any Lua function or library from Fennel and vice-versa. Zero overhead: Compiled code should be just as efficient as hand-written Lua. Compile-time macros: Ship compiled code with no runtime dependency on Fennel. Embeddable: Fennel is a one-file library as well as an executable. Embed it in other programs to support runtime extensibility and interactive development. Anywhere you can run Lua code, you can run Fennel code. Fennel is a lisp that compiles to Lua. It aims to be easy to use, expressive and has almost zero overhead compared to writing Lua directly. Building Fennel from source allows you to use versions of Fennel that haven't been released, and it makes contributing to Fennel easier. -

IVRE
Open source framework for large scale network reconnaissance and analy
IVRE is an open source network reconnaissance framework designed to collect, process, and analyze intelligence gathered from network scans and traffic data. It provides tools for both active and passive reconnaissance, enabling users to understand how networks behave and identify exposed services or infrastructure. The framework integrates with well known security and scanning tools such as Nmap, Masscan, ZGrab2, ZDNS, and Zeek to gather large amounts of network intelligence. IVRE stores the collected data in a database and offers multiple ways to explore and analyze it, including a web interface, command line tools, and a Python API. This allows security professionals to query scan results, inspect network flows, and identify patterns across large datasets. The project can be used to build self hosted alternatives to internet scanning services such as Shodan or Censys, giving organizations full control over their own reconnaissance infrastructure. -

Lapis
A web framework for Lua and OpenResty written in MoonScript
Lapis is a framework for building web applications in Lua (or MoonScript) that primarily targets OpenResty, a high-performance web platform that runs on a customized version of Nginx. Lapis can also be used in other server environments, being compatible with any modern version of Lua. With OpenResty, Lua is run directly inside of the Nginx worker using LuaJIT, giving you the smallest barrier between the webserver and your code. Have a look at Web Framework Benchmarks just to see how OpenResty stacks up against other platforms. Utilizing the power of Lua coroutines, you can write clean code that looks synchronous but can achieve high throughput by automatically running asynchronously without blocking. Networking operations like database queries and HTTP requests will automatically yield to allow for handling concurrent requests, all without all that callback spaghetti seen in other asynchronous platforms. -

Minuet
Dance with Intelligence in Your Code
Minuet-AI.nvim is an open-source Neovim plugin that provides AI-powered code completion by connecting the editor to modern large language models. The project is designed to bring real-time AI assistance directly into the developer’s editing environment while maintaining the speed and flexibility expected from the Neovim ecosystem. Instead of relying on a single provider, the plugin supports a variety of LLM backends, allowing developers to choose among services such as OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Codestral, Ollama, or local inference engines. The system provides both traditional chat-based prompt completion and fill-in-the-middle code generation for models that support that capability. This design allows developers to receive context-aware suggestions as they type, helping accelerate coding tasks such as writing boilerplate code, completing functions, or generating small code blocks. -

React Lua
A comprehensive, but not exhaustive, translation of upstream ReactJS
A comprehensive, but not exhaustive, translation of upstream ReactJS 17.x into Lua. React Lua is a comprehensive translation of upstream ReactJS from JavaScript into Lua, and is highly-turned for both performance and correctness. When possible, upstream flow type and definitely-typed types have been translated into Luau-type annotations. The major and minor version of React Lua is aligned to the upstream used for the translation, except where noted. Due to the close nature of the two implementations, most articles, videos, or blog posts that give React JS advice can be applied to React Lua -- modulo language differences, of course. -

better-escape.nvim
Map keys without delay when typing
A lot of people have mappings like jk or jj to escape insert mode. The problem with these mappings is that whenever you type a j, neovim wait about 100-500ms (depending on your timeoutlen) to see if you type a j or a k because these are mapped. Only after that time, the j will be inserted. Then you always get a delay when typing a j. -
