GitLab
Please open new issues in our issue tracker on GitLab
GitLab is a single-application DevOps platform that brings source control, CI/CD, package registries, security scanning, and deployment pipelines under one roof to accelerate software delivery. Built around Git repositories and merge-request workflows, it tightly integrates continuous integration, automated testing, code review, and release orchestration so teams can move from idea to production within a unified UI and policy model. GitLab’s features extend into the operational lifecycle—container registries, infrastructure as code, monitoring dashboards, and incident management—allowing platform teams to define guardrails and compliance as code across projects and groups. It supports extensive automation via pipelines, runners, webhooks, and a comprehensive REST/GraphQL API, enabling complex workflows like canary deployments, feature flagging, and security scanning as part of merge request gates. -

Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework is a comprehensive penetration-testing and exploit development platform that streamlines the process of discovering, validating, and demonstrating vulnerabilities. It provides a modular architecture—payloads, encoders, exploits, auxiliaries, and post-exploitation modules—so security professionals can piece together complex attack chains or test defensive controls in realistic ways. Built-in features include an exploit database, network scanners, credential harvesters, and frameworks to craft reliable payload delivery while handling target nuances like mitigation bypasses and platform differences. Beyond raw exploitation, the framework includes post-exploitation tooling for lateral movement, persistence, data exfiltration simulations, and evidence collection, enabling red teams to exercise detection and incident response workflows. -

Ruby
Ruby programming language
A dynamic, open source programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity. It has an elegant syntax that is natural to read and easy to write. Ruby is a language of careful balance. Its creator, Yukihiro “Matz” Matsumoto, blended parts of his favorite languages (Perl, Smalltalk, Eiffel, Ada, and Lisp) to form a new language that balanced functional programming with imperative programming. He has often said that he is “trying to make Ruby natural, not simple,” in a way that mirrors life. Since its public release in 1995, Ruby has drawn devoted coders worldwide. In 2006, Ruby achieved mass acceptance. With active user groups formed in the world’s major cities and Ruby-related conferences filled to capacity. Ruby-Talk, the primary mailing list for discussion of the Ruby language, climbed to an average of 200 messages per day in 2006. It has dropped in recent years as the size of the community pushed discussion from one central list into many smaller groups. -

Linguist
Detect blob languages, suppress generated files and generate graphs
This library is used on GitHub.com to detect blob languages, ignore binary or vendored files, suppress generated files in diffs, and generate language breakdown graphs. Linguist is a Ruby library so you will need a recent version of Ruby installed. There are known problems with the macOS/XCode supplied version of Ruby that causes problems installing some of the dependencies. Accordingly, we highly recommend you install a version of Ruby using Homebrew, rbenv, rvm, ruby-build, asdf or other packaging system, before attempting to install Linguist and the dependencies. Linguist uses charlock_holmes for character encoding and rugged for libgit2 bindings for Ruby. These components have their own dependencies. A repository's languages stats can also be assessed from the command line using the github-linguist executable. Without any options, github-linguist will output the breakdown that correlates to what is shown in the language stats bar. -

AWS X-Ray SDK for Ruby
The official AWS X-Ray Recorder SDK for Ruby
AWS X-Ray recommends using AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) to instrument your application instead of this X-Ray SDK due to its wider range of features and instrumentation. The AWS X-Ray SDK for Ruby is compatible with Ruby 2.3.6 and newer Ruby versions. It has experimental support for JRuby 9.2.0.0 (still forthcoming). To install the Ruby gem for your project, add it to your project Gemfile. You must also add either the Oj or JrJackson gems, for MRI and JRuby respectively, for JSON parsing. The default JSON parser will not work properly, currently. The SDKs included with X-Ray are part of a tightly integrated instrumentation solution offered by AWS. The AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry is part of a broader industry solution in which X-Ray is only one of many tracing solutions. You can implement end-to-end tracing in X-Ray using either approach, but it’s important to understand the differences in order to determine the most useful approach for you. -

Blueprint CSS
A CSS framework that aims to cut down on your CSS development time
Blueprint CSS is a CSS framework aimed at accelerating layout and typographic design by providing robust base styles, grid systems, and reusable UI components. It combines normalized defaults with helpful utilities—such as column layouts, form styling, and typography helpers—so developers can build responsive sites with less repetitive CSS. Because it’s designed as a structural foundation rather than a themed UI kit, it’s easy to layer branding and custom design on top without fighting the base styles. The framework includes mixins, modifier classes, and responsive breakpoints so layouts adapt fluidly across screen sizes. By starting with a consistent baseline, Blueprint CSS reduces cross-browser quirks and gives designers confidence in spacing, proportion, and element alignment. Teams often use it as the “CSS backbone” of internal tools, web products, or component libraries. -

CocoaPods
The Cocoa Dependency Manager
CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Swift and Objective-C Cocoa projects. It has over 82 thousand libraries and is used in over 3 million apps. CocoaPods can help you scale your projects elegantly. CocoaPods is built with Ruby and is installable with the default Ruby available on macOS. We recommend you use the default ruby. Using the default Ruby install can require you to use sudo when installing gems. Further installation instructions are in the guides. CocoaPods manages library dependencies for your Xcode projects. The dependencies for your projects are specified in a single text file called a Podfile. CocoaPods will resolve dependencies between libraries, fetch the resulting source code, then link it together in an Xcode workspace to build your project. Ultimately the goal is to improve discoverability of, and engagement in, third party open-source libraries by creating a more centralised ecosystem. -

Errbit
The open source error catcher that's Airbrake API compliant
Errbit is a tool for collecting and managing errors from other applications. It is Airbrake API compliant, so if you are already using Airbrake, you can just point the airbrake gem to your Errbit server. The way Errbit arranges notices into error groups is configurable. By default, Errbit uses the notice's error class, error message, complete backtrace, component (or controller), action and environment name to generate a unique fingerprint for every notice. Notices with identical fingerprints appear in the UI as different occurences of the same error and notices with differing fingerprints are displayed as separate errors. Following the recommendation of 12factor.net, Errbit takes all of its configuration from environment variables. You can use dotenv, which is included in the Gemfile, to fill in any values that you can't or won't supply through the environment. -

Geocoder
Complete Ruby geocoding solution
Geocoder is a full-featured geocoding library for Ruby that integrates seamlessly with Rails applications. It enables converting addresses into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) and vice versa, known as reverse geocoding. The gem supports multiple geocoding services like Google, Bing, Mapbox, and OpenStreetMap, letting developers choose based on cost or coverage. Beyond simple geocoding, Geocoder can perform IP address lookups, distance queries, and proximity searches directly in ActiveRecord or Mongoid models. With its database integration, you can query for nearby records, order results by distance, or filter results within a radius, making it invaluable for location-based apps. By abstracting away API differences and providing a clean Ruby interface, Geocoder makes geospatial features straightforward to implement in web and mobile projects. -

Mechanize
Mechanize is a ruby library that makes automated web interaction easy
The Mechanize library is used for automating interaction with websites. Mechanize automatically stores and sends cookies, follows redirects, and can follow links and submit forms. Form fields can be populated and submitted. Mechanize also keeps track of the sites that you have visited as a history. This library was heavily influenced by its namesake in the Perl world. Mechanize#transact runs the given block and then resets the page history. I.e. after the block has been executed, you're back at the original page; no need to count how many times to call the back method at the end of a loop (while accounting for possible exceptions). -
