Mozc
Mozc - a Japanese Input Method Editor designed for multi-platform
Mozc is an open source Japanese Input Method Editor (IME) developed by Google, designed to provide Japanese text input across multiple operating systems including Android, macOS, Windows, GNU/Linux, and Chromium OS. The project originated as a subset of Google Japanese Input, released publicly under the BSD 3-Clause license for community use and development. Mozc offers core IME functionality such as text conversion, prediction, and dictionary-based input, enabling users to efficiently type and edit Japanese text. While Mozc shares much of its codebase with Google’s internal IME, it operates as an independent open source project without official support, guarantees, or stable release cycles. Developers can build Mozc from source for their preferred platform, and the repository includes detailed build instructions for Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows environments. -

Ink
A fast and flexible Markdown parser written in Swift.
Ink is a fast and flexible Markdown parsing library written in Swift that is designed to convert Markdown content into structured representations suitable for rendering or further processing. Originally developed as part of the Publish ecosystem, it focuses on performance and extensibility while maintaining a relatively simple and understandable internal architecture. The parser operates by reading Markdown input through a structured reader system that processes fragments and determines how each section should be interpreted. It uses error handling as part of its control flow, allowing the parser to efficiently decide whether to advance or rewind when processing different Markdown constructs. Ink is intended to be both production-ready and developer-friendly, encouraging users to explore and extend its functionality as needed. -

An AI-agent skill that turns Markdown into paste-ready WeChat article
gzh-design-skill is an AI-agent workflow that converts Markdown into polished HTML for the WeChat Official Account editor. It uses fully inline styling and platform-aware markup so pasted articles retain their formatting after WeChat filters the content. The skill recognizes headings, quotations, lists, code blocks, images, highlights, and other Markdown structures before assembling them from reusable components. Six built-in themes cover tutorials, reviews, essays, reports, technology writing, and editorial-style articles. A theme generator can create additional component libraries from a written design direction or reference image. Source and output validators check prohibited markup, formatting conventions, and component quality, while the generated preview page includes a direct copy action. -
