Notepads
A modern, lightweight text editor with a minimalist design
I have been waiting long enough for a modern Windows 10 notepad app to come before I decided to create one myself. Don’t get me wrong, Notepad++, VS Code, and Sublime are great text editors. I have used them all and I will continue to use them in the future. However, they are either too heavy or look less appealing. There are times that I just wanted to use Windows Notepad for things like writing notes or editing config files. So I decided to create a win32 notepad replacement here and try to give it a modern look and feel. Most importantly, it has to be blazingly fast and appeal to everyone. -

It can facilitate user deployment and practicality. The starting point for development is that the company's IT department needs a simple and practical system for document management and sharing of project interfaces. Its function and interface originate from kancloud. It can be used to store daily interface documents, database dictionaries, manual descriptions and other documents. Built-in project management, user management, permission management and other functions can meet the document management needs of most small and medium teams. -

Mark
Sync your markdown files with Confluence pages
Mark, a tool for syncing your markdown documentation with Atlassian Confluence pages. This is very useful if you store documentation to your software in a Git repository and don't want to do the extra job of updating the Confluence page using a tinymce wysiwyg enterprise core editor which always breaks everything. Mark does the same but in a different way. Mark reads your markdown file, creates a Confluence page if it's not found by its name, uploads attachments, translates Markdown into HTML, and updates the contents of the page via REST API. It's like you don't even need to create sections/pages in your Confluence anymore, just use them in your Markdown documentation. Mark uses an extended file format, which, still being valid markdown, contains several HTML-ish metadata headers, which can be used to locate a page inside the Confluence instance and update it accordingly. -

WeChat Markdown Editor
WeChat Markdown Editor | A highly concise WeChat Markdown editor, that supports Markdown syntax, color palette selection, multi-image upload, one-click document download, custom CSS style, one-click reset, and other features. Markdown documents are automatically rendered into WeChat graphics and text in real-time, so you no longer have to worry about the typesetting of WeChat articles! As long as you know the basic Markdown syntax, you can make a simple and beautiful WeChat graphic. Chrome browser is recommended for best results. In addition, for domestic (China) friends, accessing Gitee Pages will be relatively faster. The existing open-source WeChat Markdown editor has complicated styles and does not meet my personal aesthetic needs. When I use them for article typesetting, I often have to make some changes myself, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so I did secondary development. -

ARIS
Lightweight Markdown-only skills for autonomous ML research
ARIS is an experimental automation framework that leverages AI coding agents to perform continuous research and development tasks autonomously, even without active user supervision. The system is designed to run iterative cycles of research, coding, testing, and refinement, effectively simulating a “sleep mode” where productive work continues in the background. It integrates with AI tools such as Claude Code to generate solutions, analyze results, and improve outputs over time. The project emphasizes long-running workflows that can explore problem spaces more deeply than manual intervention would typically allow. It also highlights the potential of autonomous agents to handle repetitive or exploratory tasks that would otherwise require significant human effort. The framework is particularly relevant for developers interested in automated experimentation, continuous learning systems, and AI-driven productivity. -
