MacPorts
The MacPorts Project is an open-source community initiative to design an easy-to-use system for compiling, installing, and upgrading either command-line, X11, or Aqua-based open-source software on the Mac operating system. To that end, we provide the command-line driven MacPorts software package under a 3-Clause BSD License, and through it easy access to thousands of ports that greatly simplify the task of compiling and installing open-source software on your Mac. We provide a single software tree that attempts to track the latest release of every software title (port) we distribute, without splitting them into “stable” vs. “unstable” branches, targeting mainly macOS Mojave v10.14 and later (including macOS Monterey v12 on both Intel and Apple Silicon). There are thousands of ports in our tree, distributed among different categories, and more are being added on a regular basis.

Bastillion
Bastillion is a web-based SSH console that centrally manages administrative access to systems. Web-based administration is combined with the management and distribution of users' public SSH keys. Key management and administration are based on profiles assigned to defined users. Administrators can log in using two-factor authentication with Authy or Google Authenticator. From there they can manage their public SSH keys or connect to their systems through a web shell. Commands can be shared across shells to make patching easier and eliminate redundant command execution. Bastillion layers TLS/SSL on top of SSH and acts as a bastion host for administration. Protocols are stacked (TLS/SSL + SSH) so infrastructure cannot be exposed through tunneling/port forwarding. Also, SSH key management is enabled by default to prevent unmanaged public keys and enforce best practices. Bastillion is available for free use under the Prosperity Public License.
