Daily developer tools intelligence: new repos, hot projects, and version tracking. Each entry includes a plain-English explanation of what it actually does.
nsrht/time-travel-sqlite-debugger (★37 · HTML) An open-source, ultra-lightweight web application and CLI daemon designed to track and instantly rewind a corrupted or modified SQLite database file back to any previous state (e.g. 3 minutes ago) during local development — just like scrubbing a video. > 🇹🇷 Türkçe Dokümantasyon: Türkçe rehber için lütfen README.tr.md dosyasına bakın.
0arch-io/gameboy (★14 · Rust) A Game Boy and Game Boy Color emulator written from scratch in Rust. Runs Pokémon Red start to finish, with all four sound channels. Play it in your browser: the same core compiled to WebAssembly, with a homebrew game preloaded. Prebuilt binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows are on the Releases page.
pandev-metriks/pandev-cli (★13) What your AI coding agents actually cost — broken down by task, branch, model and file. Runs on your machine. No account, no telemetry — your logs never leave your laptop. ``` npx pandev@beta
omacom-io/ttfx (★12 · Rust) Terminal text effects as a single static binary. Pipe text in, pick an effect: ```sh ls -la | ttfx decrypt cat banner.txt | ttfx beams
kkx94/oss-init (★11 · JavaScript)
Scaffold a production-grade open source repository in one command. oss-init generates a complete, production-ready repository skeleton: professional README (English and Chinese), LICENSE, CONTRIBUTING, CODE_OF_CONDUCT, SECURITY, CHANGELOG, .gitignore, and optional GitHub Actions CI/CD and release workflows.
Nokimalos/rag-ci (★9 · Python) Stop shipping RAG regressions. rag-ci measures every change to your RAG pipeline against a baseline and fails the pull request when retrieval actually got worse — not when it merely looks worse. See it catch one, in one command and under a second — no API key, nothing to download:
BigStrongSun/ccswitchmulti (★9 · Rust) English | 中文 | 日本語 | Deutsch | Changelog 求助和反馈：可以提交 GitHub Issue，也可以扫码加入小红书讨论群一起讨论。（二维码有效期至 2026-07-20）
adiimanav/moreland (★9 · Rust) Use an Android tablet as a second monitor on Linux/Wayland, over USB. An alternative for Hyprland - wired, not wireless. Plug the tablet in and a virtual monitor appears. Unplug it and the monitor disappears. Wayland-native, hardware-encoded, zero-copy - no VNC, no RDP, no X11.
Vac-le/auto-code-review (★5 · JavaScript) One review standard for every coding agent. Auto Code Review is a local-first, evidence-first AI review workflow for Codex and Claude Code. It uses the model and account already active in your coding agent, so the default path needs no additional model API key, hosted gateway, or source-code upload.
AhmadHassan-BTed/OpenHeart (★5 · Rust) A high-performance static program analysis engine and bidirectional UML generation platform built on succinct data structures, memory-mapped binary layouts, and formal graph representations. ---
vite — v8.2.1
A build tool and dev server for modern web projects. Starts instantly (no bundling in dev), uses native ES modules in the browser, and bundles with Rollup for production. The replacement for webpack in most new projects.
esbuild — v0.28.2
A JavaScript and TypeScript bundler written in Go. Extremely fast — 10-100x faster than webpack or Rollup. Used as the engine inside Vite and many other tools. Good for simple bundling; less configurable than webpack.
turbo — v2.10.9
A build system for JavaScript/TypeScript monorepos. Caches task results so you only re-run what changed. Built by Vercel. Speeds up CI and local builds in large codebases with multiple packages.
biome — v0.3.3
A single tool that replaces both ESLint and Prettier. Formats and lints JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, and CSS. Written in Rust, so it runs much faster than the JS-based tools it replaces.
bun — v1.3.14
A JavaScript runtime, package manager, bundler, and test runner in one. Faster than Node.js at most things. Drop-in compatible with most Node.js code. Written in Zig.
vitest — v4.1.10
A unit testing framework built specifically for Vite projects. Uses the same config as your Vite build, runs tests in the browser environment, and is significantly faster than Jest.
oxc — v1.0.1
A JavaScript/TypeScript toolchain written in Rust — parser, linter, formatter, transpiler, bundler. The project behind the oxlint linter. Faster than most existing tools by a large margin.
rspack — v0.1.1
A webpack-compatible bundler written in Rust. Drop-in replacement for webpack with the same config format, but much faster. Built by ByteDance (TikTok's parent).
wrangler — v4.120.0
The CLI for deploying and managing Cloudflare Workers — serverless functions that run at the edge in Cloudflare's global network. Also manages KV storage, Durable Objects, Pages, and R2.
drizzle-orm — v0.45.2
A TypeScript ORM that lets you write SQL-like queries in TypeScript with full type safety. Lightweight, no code generation step, and closer to raw SQL than ORMs like Prisma.
