NetBird
Connect your devices into a secure WireGuard-based overlay network
NetBird is an open-source solution that builds a WireGuard®-based overlay network enabling seamless, encrypted peer-to-peer connectivity without the complexity of firewall rules, port forwarding, or centralized VPN gateways. It integrates access control features such as SSO and MFA for secure, policy-driven networking. Every machine in the network runs NetBird Agent (or Client) that manages WireGuard. Every agent connects to Management Service that holds network state, manages peer IPs, and distributes network updates to agents (peers). NetBird agent uses WebRTC ICE implemented in pion/ice library to discover connection candidates when establishing a peer-to-peer connection between machines. -

OpenRGB
Open source RGB lighting control
OpenRGB is a cross-platform, vendor-agnostic RGB lighting controller that frees you from proprietary motherboard or peripheral utilities. It talks directly to supported devices and exposes a unified interface for setting colors, animations, and per-LED layouts across brands. The app supports running as a standalone GUI, a headless server, or a networked client so multiple machines can synchronize lighting. Profiles make it easy to save and switch complex scenes, and a graphical LED map helps craft precise patterns. Power users can automate everything via a command-line tool and an SDK that third-party apps can target. The project’s goal is straightforward: one tool to orchestrate all your lighting without the bloat, drivers, or background processes that often come with vendor software. -

Windows 95 in Electron
Windows 95 in Electron. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows
windows95 in Electron is a quirky, nostalgia-driven project that ports a complete emulation of Microsoft Windows 95 into a desktop application that runs on modern operating systems like Windows, macOS, and Linux. It essentially wraps an emulator — preconfigured to boot Windows 95 — inside a user-friendly app built with web technologies so developers and hobbyists can explore the look and feel of that classic OS without needing legacy hardware or complicated setup. Users can interact with familiar UI elements like the Start menu, File Explorer, and retro applications in a sandboxed environment that evokes early personal computing. Beyond being a playful trip down memory lane, the project demonstrates how emulation can be packaged using modern frameworks & how legacy operating systems can be encapsulated as distributable desktop experiences. It’s become an example of how software preservation and creative programming can intersect, inspiring others to bring historic systems to life. -

FreeRDP
FreeRDP is a free remote desktop protocol library and clients
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), released under the Apache license. Enjoy the freedom of using your software wherever you want, the way you want it, in a world where interoperability can finally liberate your computing experience. The nightly builds are installed into /opt/freerdp-nightly and can be installed in parallel with the distributions regular freerdp package. Network tracing of RDP can be quite a challenge due to a number of factors such as encryption, compression, and the fact that these protocol features cannot always be disabled or worked around. One of the easiest way of decrypting RDP traffic is to configure the server with a self-signed certificate for which the private key is known, and then use this certificate with a network tracing tool to automatically decrypt the packets. -

Mole
🐹 Deep clean and optimize your Mac.
Mole is a terminal-based tool for deep system cleanup, app uninstallation, and optimization on macOS. It aims to consolidate the functionality of multiple popular Mac utilities—cleaners, uninstallers, disk analyzers, and system tuners—into a single open-source binary.
