warp
A super-easy, composable, web server framework for warp speeds
The fundamental building block of warp is the Filter, they can be combined and composed to express rich requirements on requests. A Filter in warp is essentially a function that can operate on some input, either something from a request, or something from a previous Filter, and returns some output, which could be some app-specific type you wish to pass around, or can be some reply to send back as an HTTP response. That might sound simple, but the exciting part is the combinators that exist on the Filter trait. These allow composing smaller Filters into larger ones, allowing you to modularize, and reuse any part of your web server. As awesome as the Filter system is, if warp didn’t provide common web server features, it’d still be annoying to work with. Thus, warp provides a bunch of built-in Filters, allowing you to compose the functionality you need to describe each route or resource or sub-whatever. -

WorkerVless2sub
Automate batch replacement to generate subscription generators
WorkerVless2sub is a dedicated subscription generator focused on providing “preferred line” subscriptions by processing VMess, VLESS, Trojan nodes, filtering and replacing automatically via a Cloudflare Worker script. The idea is you supply node lists (or use existing APIs/CSV sources) and the worker filters them by criteria like speed or reliability and then emits a subscription link for end-users. It supports deployment on Cloudflare Pages or Workers, offers configuration via variables like HOST, UUID, PATH, ADD, ADDAPI etc., and has an Apache-2.0 license. The tool supports both IPv4 and IPv6 node sources, speed test CSV inputs, and logic to drop nodes that don’t meet the threshold (DLS variable). It has a sizeable star count and forks indicating broader adoption in self-hosted proxy subscription communities. The README also explicitly warns about hosting personal private nodes in the script if intending public use. -

YAO
Yao A low code engine to create web services and dashboard
Yao allows developers to create web services by processes. Yao is a low-code engine that creates a database model, writes API services, and describes dashboard interface just by JSON for web & hardware, no code, and 10x productivity. Yao is based on the flow-based programming idea, developed in the Go language, and supports multiple ways to expand the data stream processor. This makes Yao extremely versatile, which can replace programming languages in most scenarios, and is 10 times more efficient than traditional programming languages in terms of reusability and coding efficiency; application performance and resource ratio Better than PHP, JAVA and other languages. Yao has a built-in data management system. By writing JSON to describe the interface layout, 90% of the common interface interaction functions can be realized. It is especially suitable for quickly making various management backgrounds, CRM, ERP, and other internal enterprise systems. -

Nomulus
Top-level domain name registry service on Google Cloud Platform
Nomulus is a production-grade, open-source domain registry platform used to operate top-level domains (TLDs). It implements the core registry protocols—EPP for registrar interactions, WHOIS/RDAP for public data access—and manages the lifecycle of domain objects, hosts, and contacts. The system is built to scale and to enforce policy: pricing rules, reserved names, premium tiers, grace periods, and automated renewals are modeled explicitly. It integrates with DNS provisioning, data escrow, and billing so you can run a compliant registry end-to-end rather than stitching together separate services. Operators get admin tools for reporting, manual adjustments, and policy configuration, while registrars interact through standards-compliant channels. Nomulus treats registries as serious infrastructure: audited flows, durable storage, and clear extension points for custom policies and TLD-specific behavior. -

SWC
Rust-based platform for the Web
SWC is an extensible Rust-based platform for the next generation of fast developer tools. It's used by tools like Next.js, Parcel, and Deno, as well as companies like Vercel, ByteDance, Tencent, Shopify, and more. SWC can be used for both compilation and bundling. For compilation, it takes JavaScript / TypeScript files using modern JavaScript features and outputs valid code that is supported by all major browsers. SWC is 20x faster than Babel on a single thread and 70x faster on four cores. SWC can be downloaded and used as a pre-built binary, or built from the source. SWC (stands for Speedy Web Compiler) is a super-fast TypeScript / JavaScript compiler written in Rust. It's a library for Rust and JavaScript at the same time. If you are using SWC from Rust, see rustdoc and for most users, your entry point for using the library will be parser. If you are using SWC from JavaScript, please refer to the docs on the website. -

Apache Thrift
Language-independent stack for point-to-point RPC implementation
Apache Thrift is a software framework for scalable cross-language services development. Apache Thrift allows you to define data types and service interfaces in a simple definition file. Taking that file as input, the compiler generates code to be used to easily build RPC clients and servers that communicate seamlessly across programming languages. Thrift is a lightweight, language-independent software stack for point-to-point RPC implementation. Thrift provides clean abstractions and implementations for data transport, data serialization, and application level processing. Thrift is specifically designed to support non-atomic version changes across client and server code. This allows you to upgrade your server while still being able to service older clients; or have newer clients issue requests to older servers. For more details on Thrift's design and implementation, see the Thrift whitepaper included in this distribution, or at the README.md file. -

Java JWT
Java implementation of JSON Web Token (JWT)
A Java implementation of JSON Web Token (JWT) - RFC 7519. This library requires Java 8 or higher. The last version that supported Java 7 was 3.11.0. The library implements JWT Verification and Signing using several algorithms. The Algorithm defines how a token is signed and verified. It can be instantiated with the raw value of the secret in the case of HMAC algorithms, or the key pairs or KeyProvider in the case of RSA and ECDSA algorithms. Once created, the instance is reusable for token signing and verification operations. When using RSA or ECDSA algorithms and you just need to sign JWTs you can avoid specifying a Public Key by passing a null value. The same can be done with the Private Key when you just need to verify JWTs. -

AST explorer
A web tool to explore the ASTs generated by various parsers
Paste or drop code into the editor and inspect the generated AST. Depending on the parser settings, it not only supports ES5/CSS3. Since the future syntax is supported, the AST explorer is a useful tool for developers who want to create AST transforms. In fact, transformers are included so you can prototype your own plugins. Save and fork code snippets. Copy the URL to share them. Copying an AST or dropping a file containing an AST into the window will parse the AST and update the code using escodegen. Otherwise, the content of the text editor will be replaced with the content of the file (i.e. you can drag and drop JS files). Choose between multiple parsers and configure them. shift+click on a node expands the full subtree. Hovering over a node highlights the corresponding text in the source code. Editing the source or moving the cursor around will automatically highlight the corresponding AST node (or its ancestors of it isn't expanded). -
