pikepdf
A Python library for reading and writing PDF, powered by QPDF
pikepdf is a Python library allowing the creation, manipulation, and repair of PDFs. It provides a Pythonic wrapper around the C++ PDF content transformation library, QPDF. Python + QPDF = “py” + “qpdf” = “pyqpdf”, which looks like a dyslexia test and is no fun to type. But say “pyqpdf” out loud, and it sounds like “pikepdf”. pikepdf is a library intended for developers who want to create, manipulate, parse, repair, and abuse the PDF format. It supports reading and write PDFs, including creating from scratch. Thanks to QPDF, it supports linearizing PDFs and access to encrypted PDFs. -

PHPExcel
Library offering classes to read from and write to spreadsheet formats
PHPExcel is a comprehensive library for reading, writing, and manipulating Excel spreadsheets in PHP, supporting multiple formats like XLS, XLSX, CSV, and more. Developers can create complex spreadsheets with styled cells, formulas, charts, images, and multiple sheets programmatically. It also supports reading existing files, iterating through cells, applying data validation, and converting between formats. Because it handles the details of Excel file structures—including relationships, themes, and various metadata—users don’t need to manage proprietary file internals themselves. The API allows for cell access using row/column indexes or column letters, batch updates, and streaming writes to reduce memory usage. As a mature library, it’s used in reporting, migrations, invoice generation, and any scenario where dynamic, server-side spreadsheet generation is needed in PHP applications. -

RustDesk Server PRO
Some scripts for RustDesk Server Pro are hosted here
This project provides the enterprise-grade backend for RustDesk deployments that need centralized management, stronger policy controls, and advanced operational tooling. It encompasses the components required to broker, relay, and supervise connections while adding administrative layers suitable for regulated or large environments. Organizations can standardize how clients authenticate, how sessions are permitted and audited, and how data paths are routed under diverse network constraints. The server emphasizes reliability for interactive use cases like remote control, file transfer, and support workflows, even when clients sit behind strict NAT or firewall rules. It aims to balance performance with privacy by letting companies retain custody over metadata and configuration within their own perimeter. The result is a production-ready core for remote access programs that must meet enterprise expectations around governance, observability, and uptime. -

AIMET
AIMET is a library that provides advanced quantization and compression
Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) is at the forefront of enabling low-power inference at the edge through its pioneering model-efficiency research. QuIC has a mission to help migrate the ecosystem toward fixed-point inference. With this goal, QuIC presents the AI Model Efficiency Toolkit (AIMET) - a library that provides advanced quantization and compression techniques for trained neural network models. AIMET enables neural networks to run more efficiently on fixed-point AI hardware accelerators. Quantized inference is significantly faster than floating point inference. For example, models that we’ve run on the Qualcomm® Hexagon™ DSP rather than on the Qualcomm® Kryo™ CPU have resulted in a 5x to 15x speedup. Plus, an 8-bit model also has a 4x smaller memory footprint relative to a 32-bit model. However, often when quantizing a machine learning model (e.g., from 32-bit floating point to an 8-bit fixed point value), the model accuracy is sacrificed. -

Ultroid
Telegram UserBot, Built in Python Using Telethon lib
Ultroid, a pluggable telegram userbot, made in python using Telethon! Ultroid has been written from scratch, making it more stable and less crashes. Ultroid warns you when you try to install/execute dangerous stuff (people nowadays make plugins to hack user accounts, Ultroid is safe). Unlike many others userbots that are being suspended by Heroku, Ultroid doesn't get suspended. Ultroid has been written from scratch, making it more stable and less of crashes. Error handling been done in the best way possible, such that the bot doesn't crash and stop all of a sudden. Ultroid has minimal amount of plugins (just the necessary ones) in the main repository, and all the other less-useful stuff in the addons repository. This facilitates quick deployments and lag-free use. Ultroid can install any plugin from the most of the other 'userbots' without any issue. -

jQuery Validation Plugin
jQuery Validation Plugin library sources
The jQuery Validation Plugin provides drop-in validation for your existing forms, while making all kinds of customizations to fit your application really easy. This jQuery plugin makes simple clientside form validation easy, whilst still offering plenty of customization options. It makes a good choice if you’re building something new from scratch, but also when you’re trying to integrate something into an existing application with lots of existing markup. The plugin comes bundled with a useful set of validation methods, including URL and email validation, while providing an API to write your own methods. All bundled methods come with default error messages in english and translations into 37 other languages. The plugin was initially written and maintained by Jörn Zaefferer, a member of the jQuery team, lead developer on the jQuery UI team and maintainer of QUnit. It was started back in the early days of jQuery in 2006, and updated and improved since then. -

Twemoji
Simple library that provides standard Unicode emoji for all platforms
Twitter’s open source emoji has you covered for all your project's emoji needs. With support for the latest Unicode emoji specification, featuring 3,245 emojis, and all for free. As an open source project, attribution is critical from a legal, practical and motivational perspective in our opinion. The graphics are licensed under the CC-BY 4.0 which has a pretty good guide on best practices for attribution. Although there are two kinds of parsing supported by this utility, we recommend you use DOM parsing, explained below. Each type of parsing accepts a callback to generate an image source or an options object with parsing info. The second kind of parsing is string parsing. This is unrecommended because this method does not sanitize the string or otherwise prevent malicious code from being executed; such sanitization is out of scope. -

SDL
Simple DirectMedia Layer
SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) is a cross-platform multimedia development library designed to provide low-level access to hardware components such as graphics, audio, input devices, and system resources, making it a foundational tool for building games, emulators, and interactive applications. It abstracts platform-specific functionality into a consistent API, allowing developers to write code once and deploy it across multiple operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. SDL is written in C but is compatible with C++ and has bindings for multiple other programming languages, making it highly flexible for different development environments. The library is not a game engine itself, but rather a hardware abstraction layer that enables developers to build engines or applications on top of it with full control over performance and rendering. It supports modern graphics APIs such as OpenGL, Vulkan, Direct3D, and Metal. -

HLS.js
HLS.js is a JavaScript library that plays HLS in browsers
HLS.js is a JavaScript library that implements an HTTP Live Streaming client. It relies on HTML5 video and MediaSource Extensions for playback. It works by transmuxing MPEG-2 Transport Stream and AAC/MP3 streams into ISO BMFF (MP4) fragments. Transmuxing is performed asynchronously using a Web Worker when available in the browser. HLS.js also supports HLS + fmp4, as announced during WWDC2016. HLS.js works directly on top of a standard HTML<video> element. HLS.js is written in ECMAScript6 (*.js) and TypeScript (*.ts) (strongly typed superset of ES6), and transpiled in ECMAScript5 using Babel and the TypeScript compiler. Webpack is used to build the distro bundle and serve the local development environment.
