LiteBox is a security-focused “library OS” sandboxing project that aims to shrink the interface between an application and its host environment to reduce attack surface. Instead of relying solely on broad OS-level permissions, it focuses on isolating workloads by tightly controlling the boundary where code interacts with host services and system resources. The design emphasizes interoperability across different integration layers, describing a separation between “North” shims (how apps or...

Install and run any JS tool quickly and seamlessly! Volta is built in Rust and ships as a snappy static binary. Ensure everyone in your project has the same tools—without interfering with their workflow. No matter the package manager, Node runtime, or OS, one command is all you need: volta install. Fast: Install and run any JS tool quickly and seamlessly! Volta is built in Rust and ships as a snappy static binary. Ensure everyone in your project has the same tools—without interfering with...

crosvm (ChromeOS Virtual Machine Monitor) is a secure, lightweight virtual machine monitor built on top of the Linux KVM hypervisor. Developed for ChromeOS, it is designed to isolate and execute Linux and Android guests efficiently while maintaining strong security boundaries. Unlike general-purpose emulators like QEMU, crosvm avoids full hardware emulation and focuses on modern paravirtualized I/O using the virtio standard, reducing complexity and attack surface. Written in Rust, it...

Software development often involves running the same commands over and over. Watchexec is a simple, standalone tool that watches a path and runs a command whenever it detects modifications.

Code evolves, and we all spend time studying diffs. Delta aims to make this both efficient and enjoyable: it allows you to make extensive changes to the layout and styling of diffs, as well as allowing you to stay arbitrarily close to the default git/diff output. Language syntax highlighting with color themes. Within-line highlights based on a Levenshtein edit inference algorithm. Git style strings (foreground color, background color, font attributes) are supported for >20 stylable elements....

log4rs is a highly configurable logging framework modeled after Java's Logback and log4j libraries. If you are using the file rotation in your configuration there is a known substantial performance issue so listen up! By default the gzip feature is enabled and when rolling files it will zip log archives automatically. This is a problem when the log archives are large as the zip happens in the main thread and will halt the process while the zip is completed. Be advised that the gzip feature...
