Self-hosted DNS routing and service, including both options for simple and painless routing and advanced options, e.g. REST api access.
Seems quite young still, however, and does not support a lot of domain name registrars yet.
lsync can act as a repeatable rsync replacement. Under the hood it utilizes rsync (though there is an advanced rsyncssh integration available which does not re-transfer files over rsync that already exist on the target machine).
Ideal for local-remote scenarios, where changes occur on one machine and should be replicated on another (e.g. mirroring project directory and code changes, automatically pushing them to remote development environment for compilation/testing/building)

Notcurses is a character graphics and TUI library; actually a promissing ncurses alternative. It was mentioned (1, 2) already in this subreddit.
Besides being a library it comes with some handy apps which you may find interesting:
- ncls: an ls that displays multimedia in the terminal
- ncneofetch: a neofetch ripoff
- ncplayer: renders visual media (images/videos)
- nctetris: a tetris clone
- notcurses-demo: some demonstration code
- notcurses-input: decode and print keypresses
Simple and elegant progressive vim tutorial - starts out with very basic information and then becomes progressively more 'difficult', ending up with some basic macros and block visual selection tips.
Should be a good one for introducing new people to vim.
Grafana is an amazing visualization tool used mainly by IT teams to monitor their infrastructure. As it’s open-source there’s huge contribution from the community on both datasource and panel making…
Tag your time, get the insight. traggo alternative, pretty similar but not based on key:value pairs #tags instead.
More mature interface and reporting functionality, less extensive dashboarding possibilities.
Style your webpage like Edward Tufte’s handouts.
Uses a variety of css rules (embedding stuff in e.g. article
, figure
, checkbox
tags) to emulate Tufte's visual design,
with margin notes, side-notes, and image positioning close to its text.
Some implementations seem a bit awkward (the way sidenotes are declared, the iframe wrapper introduced) and the link-underline text-shadow hack seems pretty bad (especially on restyling pages dark-mode), but it seems nice for inspiration.
