    Notepads

    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.

    Ferrite

    Ferrite

    A fast, lightweight text editor for Markdown, JSON, YAML, and TOML

    Ferrite is a fast, lightweight desktop text editor built for people who spend a lot of time working in structured text formats and want a snappy, native-feeling app instead of a heavy IDE. It focuses on common “config and docs” formats like Markdown and popular structured data files, so it fits naturally into developer, DevOps, and technical writing workflows. The editor is designed around responsiveness and low overhead, prioritizing quick startup, smooth scrolling, and predictable editing even when you are jumping between many small files. It also aims to reduce friction when reading and tweaking structured documents by offering format-aware conveniences and a UI that stays out of the way. Ferrite positions itself as a pragmatic daily driver for notes, documentation, and configuration edits, especially when you do not need a full language server stack.

    ARIS

    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.

Dillinger is very easy to install and deploy in a Docker container.

    Planning with Files

    Planning with Files

    Claude Code skill implementing Manus-style persistent planning

    Planning With Files is a Claude Code skill — essentially a plugin for AI agent workflows — that adapts the “Manus-style” persistent markdown planning methodology into developer workflows, enabling structured project planning, progress tracking, and knowledge storage using plain text files. Inspired by high-profile agent workflows and context engineering patterns, it uses persistent markdown files (like task_plan.md, progress.md, and findings.md) as the “working memory” for AI agents, overcoming the limitations of ephemeral memory and large context windows that often lead to drift or information loss. Once installed, the plugin supports commands to create and manage planning files, integrates with multiple IDEs and CLI environments, and ensures sessions can recover progress even when context limits are reached.

    Mark

    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.
