    OpenVR SDK

    OpenVR SDK

    API and runtime that allows access to VR hardware

    OpenVR is an API and runtime that allows access to VR hardware from multiple vendors without requiring that applications have specific knowledge of the hardware they are targeting. This repository is an SDK that contains the API and samples. The runtime is under SteamVR in Tools on Steam. The OpenVR API provides a game with a way to interact with Virtual Reality displays without relying on a specific hardware vendor's SDK. It can be updated independently of the game to add support for new hardware or software updates. This means that you can access the position of the headset using only one API call and it works for all headset brands (Oculus, Mixed Reality, Vive, etc)! The API is implemented as a set of C++ interface classes full of pure virtual functions. When an application initializes the system it will return the interface that matches the header in the SDK used by that application.

    OCaml

    OCaml

    The core OCaml system: compilers, runtime system, base libraries

    OCaml is a general-purpose, industrial-strength programming language with an emphasis on expressiveness and safety. OCaml’s powerful type system means more bugs are caught at compile-time, and large, complex codebases are easier to maintain. This makes it a good language for running critical code. At the same time, sophisticated inference makes the type system unobtrusive, creating a smooth developer experience. OCaml has two compilers. One is a bytecode compiler that generates small, portable executables and is very fast. The other is a native code compiler that produces more efficient machine code; its performance matches the highest standards of modern compilers. OCaml has great support for the most popular editors. VS Code is recommended for beginners, and for power users there is deep integration with Vim and Emacs. OCaml has a rich and dynamic community and best-in-class tooling.

    workerd

    The JavaScript / Wasm runtime that powers Cloudflare Workers

    workerd is the server runtime that powers Cloudflare Workers — a modern, standards-aligned JavaScript and WebAssembly execution environment that can be run outside of Cloudflare’s global edge network as a standalone server or proxy. Designed to host serverless applications written to the Workers platform API (including fetch() and Web standard libraries), workerd enables developers to self-host edge-style workloads in local data centers or development environments, or to test Workers code offline before deploying to the cloud. It emphasizes performance, predictable deployment semantics, and secure isolation, and it uses a capability-based configuration model to bind external resources and services into worker applications in a composable way. The architecture promotes homogeneous deployment of “nanoservices,” which are lightweight components that can be distributed and scaled without complex orchestration, and it supports backward compatibility.

    Boot

    Boot

    Build tooling for Clojure

    Boot is a Clojure build framework and ad-hoc Clojure script evaluator. Boot provides a runtime environment that includes all of the tools needed to build Clojure projects from scripts written in Clojure that run in the context of the project. Build processes for applications always end up being complex things. A simple web application, for instance, may require many integrations–asset pipelines, deployment to different environments, the compilation of multiple artifacts with different compilers, packaging, etc. The more complex the build process becomes, the more flexible the build tool needs to be. Static build specifications become less and less useful as the project moves toward completion. Being Lispers we know what to do: Lambda is the ultimate declarative. Instead of building the project based on a global configuration map, boot provides a runtime environment in which a build script written in Clojure can be evaluated. It is this script.

    J2ObjC

    J2ObjC

    A Java to iOS Objective-C translation tool and runtime

    J2ObjC is an open-source command-line tool from Google that translates Java source code to Objective-C for the iOS (iPhone/iPad) platform. This tool enables Java source to be part of an iOS application's build, as no editing of the generated files is necessary. The goal is to write an app's non-UI code (such as application logic and data models) in Java, which is then shared by web apps (using GWT), Android apps, and iOS apps. J2ObjC supports most Java language and runtime features required by client-side application developers, including exceptions, inner and anonymous classes, generic types, threads and reflection. JUnit test translation and execution is also supported. J2ObjC cannot convert Android binary applications. Developers must have source code for their Android app, which they either own or are licensed to use.
