tiny11builder
Scripts to build a trimmed-down Windows 11 image
Scripts to build a trimmed-down Windows 11 image - now in PowerShell. After more than a year (for which I am so sorry) of no updates, tiny11 builder is now a much more complete and flexible solution - one script fits all. Also, it is a steppingstone for an even more fleshed-out solution. You can now use it on ANY Windows 11 release (not just a specific build), as well as ANY language or architecture. This is made possible thanks to the much-improved scripting capabilities of PowerShell, compared to the older Batch release. This is a script created to automate the build of a streamlined Windows 11 image, similar to tiny11. My main goal is to use only Microsoft utilities like DISM, and no utilities from external sources. The only executable included is oscdimg.exe, which is provided in the Windows ADK and it is used to create bootable ISO images. Also included is an unattended answer file, which is used to bypass the Microsoft Account on OOBE and to deploy the image. -

Vcpkg
C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS
Vcpkg helps you manage C and C++ libraries on Windows, Linux and MacOS. This tool and ecosystem are constantly evolving, and we always appreciate contributions! After you've gotten vcpkg installed and working, you may wish to add tab completion to your shell. With CMake, you will still need to find_package and the like to use the libraries. Check out the CMake section for more information, including on using CMake with an IDE. In classic mode, vcpkg produces an "installed" tree, whose contents are changed by explicit calls to vcpkg install or vcpkg remove. The installed tree is intended for consumption by any number of projects: for example, installing a bunch of libraries and then using those libraries from Visual Studio, without additional configuration. Because the installed tree is not associated with an individual project, it's similar to tools like brew or apt, except that the installed tree is vcpkg-installation-local, rather than global to a system or user. -

SVG Explorer Extension
Extension module for Windows Explorer to render SVG thumbnails
The SVG Explorer Extension is a utility for Windows File Explorer that adds native thumbnail rendering and context-menu previews for SVG files. With this extension installed, Explorer will show scalable previews of .svg files just like image formats, enabling visual quick identification of vector files. The project also adds a “Preview in Windows Explorer” feature so users can see full-size SVGs in the side preview pane without launching an editor. It supports features like CSS-based styling, embedded fonts, and scaling in thumbnails so the preview matches rendering expectations. Because Windows doesn’t natively render SVG previews in many versions, this fills a usability gap for designers, developers, and content creators working with vector assets. The extension is lightweight, integrates into shell UI seamlessly, and improves file navigation workflows involving vectors. -

Scoop Installer
A command-line installer for Windows
Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows. If you have built software that you would like others to use, Scoop is an alternative to building an installer (like MSI or InnoSetup). You just need to compress your app to a .zip file and provide a JSON manifest that describes how to install it. Scoop downloads and manages packages in a portable way, keeping them neatly isolated in ~\scoop. It won't install files outside its home, and you can place a Scoop installation wherever you like. For terminal applications, Scoop creates shims, a kind of command-line shortcut, inside the ~\scoop\shims folder, which is accessible in the PATH. For graphical applications, Scoop creates program shortcuts in a dedicated Start menu folder, called 'Scoop Apps'. This way, packages are always cleanly uninstalled and you can be sure what tools are currently in your PATH and in your Start menu. -

Flipper Zero BadUSB
Repository for my flipper zero badUSB payloads
The repository is a public GitHub collection of BadUSB payloads prepared to run from a Flipper Zero device; it’s presented as a plug-and-play library that bundles payload scripts, a README, and supporting files so users can pick and use payloads without heavy setup. The project is heavily PowerShell-oriented and organized into a payloads folder with documentation (README, FAQs) and helper scripts, and the author says they formatted the collection to be easy for others to use. The maintainer also set up short-URL infrastructure to simplify embedding webhooks or tokens into compact one-liners for payload configuration, and the repo includes social/contact links and acknowledgments to related projects. The repository is actively used by a community (many stars, forks and hundreds of commits), and the author explicitly warns about responsible use and includes guidance in the docs. -

posh-git
A PowerShell environment for Git
posh-git is a PowerShell module which provides Git/PowerShell integration. The prompt within Git repositories can show the current branch and the state of files (additions, modifications, deletions) within. Provides tab completion for common commands when using git. Prompt formatting, among other things, can be customized. Displaying file status in the git prompt for a very large repo can be prohibitively slow. Rather than turn off file status entirely, you can disable it on a repo-by-repo basis by adding individual repository paths. PowerShell generates its prompt by executing a prompt function, if one exists. posh-git defines such a function in profile.example.ps1 that outputs the current working directory followed by an abbreviated git status. -

Commando VM
Complete Mandiant Offensive VM (Commando VM)
Commando VM (by Mandiant) is a Windows-based offensive security / red-team distribution built to turn a fresh Windows installation into a fully featured penetration testing environment. It provides an automated installer (PowerShell script) that uses Chocolatey, Boxstarter, and MyGet package feeds to download, install, and configure dozens (100+ / 170+ depending on version) of offensive, fuzzing, enumeration, and exploitation tools. The idea is to spare testers the repetitive work of hand-installing dozens of windows tools, dependencies, and configurations. Commando VM supports customization of its installation profile (you can pick subsets of tools), includes support for WSL/Kali integration, and is intended to be used in a VM to facilitate snapshot recovery and test isolation. -

winget-pkgs
The Microsoft community Windows Package Manager manifest repository
The winget-pkgs repository is the community-maintained manifest collection for the Windows Package Manager (winget), serving as the default, upstream source of installable application manifests used by the winget client. It contains tens of thousands of manifest files (organized under a manifests/ folder) plus schema, validation, CI pipelines, and tooling to build, test, and publish packages so users can install software with a single command. The repo enforces contribution processes (including a Contributor License Agreement flow for many contributors), automated validation checks, and publishing pipelines so manifests meet format, checksum, and licensing expectations before becoming available to users. Maintainers document manifest authoring, testing, and request workflows, and the repository requires installers to be packaged as supported installer formats (MSIX, MSI, APPX, or executable installers), with script-based installers and fonts noted as unsupported. -

Scoop Extras
The Extras bucket for Scoop
Scoop «Extras» is the community-maintained bucket of additional manifests for Scoop, the popular Windows command-line installer; it contains packages and app manifests that don’t fit the stricter criteria of the main Scoop bucket. The repository is organized as a large collection of individual manifest files, helper scripts, and tooling to validate and publish new manifests, and it’s intended so users can extend Scoop with many community-contributed applications. Installation is straightforward for Scoop users: add the bucket with scoop bucket add extras and then install any manifest with scoop install <manifest>, making it quick to access a wide range of Windows command-line and GUI tools. The Extras bucket is actively maintained by a large contributor community, carries thousands of commits and many contributors, and uses an Unlicense license so manifests are easy to reuse. -
15
Scoop Main
The default bucket for Scoop
Scoop’s Main bucket is the primary, default repository (“bucket”) of application manifests for the Scoop package manager on Windows. It holds a curated set of portable or minimally invasive applications that adhere to Scoop’s standards (i.e. apps that don’t heavily depend on installer frameworks or registry tweaks). When a user installs Scoop, the Main bucket is automatically configured, so users can immediately install common command-line tools and utilities without adding extra buckets. The manifests in Main are JSON files that describe how to download, install, uninstall, and manage versions of apps (including dependencies, checksums, etc.). Because it’s the default bucket, maintainers apply stricter validation and review policies to keep Main reliable and safe compared to more experimental or niche buckets. Community contributions are encouraged via pull requests, and the bucket typically evolves with updates, new apps, and deprecations to reflect what users commonly need. -

Blazor
Build client web apps with C#
Blazor lets you build interactive web UIs using C# instead of JavaScript. Blazor apps are composed of reusable web UI components implemented using C#, HTML, and CSS. Both client and server code is written in C#, allowing you to share code and libraries. Blazor is a feature of ASP.NET, the popular web development framework that extends the .NET developer platform with tools and libraries for building web apps. Blazor can run your client-side C# code directly in the browser, using WebAssembly. Because it's real .NET running on WebAssembly, you can re-use code and libraries from server-side parts of your application. Alternatively, Blazor can run your client logic on the server. Client UI events are sent back to the server using SignalR - a real-time messaging framework. Once execution completes, the required UI changes are sent to the client and merged into the DOM. Blazor uses open web standards without plug-ins or code transpilation. -

Git Extras
GIT utilities, repo summary, repl, changelog population, and more
GIT extra utilities, like repo summary, repl, changelog population, author commit percentages and more. Supports several sub-commands such as git-ignore, git-setup, git-summary, git-changelog, git-effort, etc. Some commands require extra dependencies which are unavailable in some platforms. You may need to install them manually. Note that only the Homebrew package is maintained by the git-extras developers directly. Other packages are maintained by the distribution's packagers or third-party volunteers. Installing from Homebrew will not give you the option omit certain git-extras if they conflict with existing git aliases. To have this option, build from source. -
