Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework
Metasploit Framework is a comprehensive penetration-testing and exploit development platform that streamlines the process of discovering, validating, and demonstrating vulnerabilities. It provides a modular architecture—payloads, encoders, exploits, auxiliaries, and post-exploitation modules—so security professionals can piece together complex attack chains or test defensive controls in realistic ways. Built-in features include an exploit database, network scanners, credential harvesters, and frameworks to craft reliable payload delivery while handling target nuances like mitigation bypasses and platform differences. Beyond raw exploitation, the framework includes post-exploitation tooling for lateral movement, persistence, data exfiltration simulations, and evidence collection, enabling red teams to exercise detection and incident response workflows. -

Manyfold
A self-hosted digital asset manager for 3d print files
Manyfold is an open-source 3D collaboration platform that reimagines how distributed teams and communities can meet, create, and interact in immersive spatial environments through the web.

Users can build or import shared 3D worlds, arrange media, embed content, and design interactive layouts that support presentations, workshops, social events, games, and team gatherings without heavy software installations. The platform emphasizes accessibility and flexibility, making 3D collaboration as easy as sharing a document link while still providing spatial audio, synchronized interactions, and physics-aware environments that feel alive and responsive. -

Rein
Database constraints made easy for ActiveRecord
Data integrity is a good thing. Constraining the values allowed by your application at the database level, rather than at the application level, is a more robust way of ensuring your data stays sane. Unfortunately, ActiveRecord doesn't encourage (or even allow) you to use database integrity without resorting to hand-crafted SQL. Rein (pronounced "rain") adds a handful of methods to your ActiveRecord migrations so that you can easily tame the data in your database. All methods in the DSL are automatically reversible, so you can take advantage of reversible Rails migrations. -

Gitlab CLI
Ruby wrapper and CLI for the GitLab REST API
Gitlab CLI is a Ruby gem and CLI tool that wraps the REST API of GitLab (including self-hosted GitLab instances) to make automation, scripting and integration simpler. It provides a Ruby DSL that abstracts away direct HTTP calls, letting developers interact with GitLab’s API in idiomatic Ruby (creating projects, merge requests, listing users, etc.). In addition to the Ruby library, there is a command-line interface which enables many GitLab operations from the terminal (or scripts) without needing to manually craft API requests. The gem supports customization of endpoint URL, private tokens, proxy and HTTP options, making it suitable for self-managed GitLab instances as well as gitlab.com. It is test-covered and built to be simple to integrate into Ruby projects or CI scripts. Being open-source under a BSD-2-Clause license, it invites reuse in organizational tooling or internal DevOps workflows. Overall, it is a useful tool for teams working with GitLab who want to automate tasks. -

CSS-Only Chat
A truly monstrous async web chat using no JS whatsoever
css-only-chat is a proof-of-concept demonstration that implements a functioning chat interface using only HTML and CSS, without any JavaScript or backend logic. The project showcases creative use of CSS selectors, checkboxes, labels, and the :checked pseudo-class to mimic interactive behaviors normally handled by JavaScript. Messages are pre-written in the HTML and displayed based on user interaction, making it more of a playful experiment than a real messaging platform. Its main purpose is to illustrate the limits of CSS as a programming and UI tool, serving as both an educational example and a bit of humor within the developer community. By pushing CSS beyond its conventional role, it demonstrates how user interfaces can be simulated through styling tricks and static structures. Although not suitable for production use, it stands as a fun exercise in front-end creativity and unconventional coding challenges. -

The Art of Programming
A collection of practical tips can be found at the bottom of this page
The Art of Programming (Second Edition) is a curated collection of programming problems and solutions originally derived from the Microsoft 100 Interview Questions blog series, later refined into a long-running tutorial and ultimately a published book. Created by July, the series began in 2010 and has since evolved into an in-depth exploration of algorithmic thinking, data structures, and coding interview preparation. The repository brings together 42 classic programming problems from the original series, enhanced with detailed explanations, formula derivations, and optimized solutions. In July 2023, work on the second edition was announced, which expands the project with updated content, new problems inspired by recent big-tech interviews, and introductions to modern machine learning techniques such as XGBoost, CNNs, RNNs, and LSTMs. This collection serves both as a historical record of algorithm problem-solving and as a living resource for programmers preparing for interviews. -

FriendlyId
FriendlyId is the “Swiss Army bulldozer” of slugging
FriendlyId is a Rails gem that provides human-readable slugs for ActiveRecord models, replacing numeric IDs in URLs with meaningful strings. For example, instead of /articles/123, you can have /articles/my-first-post. It integrates with ActiveRecord to generate slugs automatically based on attributes (like a title) and manages uniqueness, history, and slug regeneration when records change. FriendlyId also supports features like slug candidates, scoped slugs, and reserved word handling to avoid conflicts. It includes extensions to keep old slugs working as redirects, so links don’t break when content is renamed. By improving readability, SEO, and user-friendliness, FriendlyId has become the de facto solution for slugging in Rails applications. -
