5. Awesome Cl

Natural Language Processing

• CLM - Common Lisp Music is a music synthesis and signal processing package in the Music V family. It provides much the same functionality as Stk, Csound, SuperCollider, PD, CMix, cmusic, and Arctic — a collection of functions that create and manipulate sounds, aimed primarily at composers (in CLM's case anyway).
  • common-tones (⭐12) - a fork of CLM5 with modern Lisp (ASDF, cffi…). BSD_3Clause.

C, C++

• cl-frugal-uuid (⭐29) - Common Lisp UUID library with zero dependencies. MIT.

Other DB wrappers

• cl-duckdb (⭐44) - Common Lisp CFFI wrapper around the DuckDB C API. MIT.

YAML

• archlinux-cl (⭐5) - Docker Arch Linux image with Common Lisp implementations (7 to this day). MIT.

  • cffi-ops (⭐48) - helps write concise CFFI-related code.
  • cffi-objects (⭐28) - enables fast and convenient interoperation with foreign objects.

Miscellaneous

• CEDAR - an advance interactive development environment aiming to be Emacs compatible with all the features that come with it. (WIP)

Reactive programming

• lwcells (⭐19) - Light Weight Cells.

Shells, shells interfaces / Third-party APIs

  • Unix concepts are directly/shallowly embedded into Lisp (Unix commands become Lisp macros, Unix file become Lisp variables, Unix streams become lazy Lisp sequences, etc).

6. Awesome Svelte

Routers / Form Components

• Elegua (⭐82) - Small (< 180LoC), fast, easy, full featured SPA router

7. Awesome Engineering Team Management

Project Management / Estimations

• Software effort estimation is mostly fake research - “The NASA dataset contains 93 rows (that is not a typo, there is no power-of-ten missing), COCOMO 63 rows, Desharnais 81 rows, and (…) the China dataset contains 499 rows.”

Communication / Writing

• Ten simple rules for structuring papers - “Focusing on how readers consume information, we present a set of 10 simple rules to help you get across the main idea of your paper.”

8. Awesome Polars

Blog posts / Miscellaneous

• Polars vs Pandas: A Brief Tale of Two DataFrame Libraries - A blog post that compares Polars and Pandas focusing in particular on optional dependencies by @ranggakd.

9. Awesome Billing

Contracts / Currencies

• Entitlements untangled: The modern way to software monetization - “The concept of Entitlements encapsulates the feature access settings under various product variants (aka Pricing Plans or Packages), bridging the gap between how a product is sold and how it behaves for a variant. In essence, entitlements are a set of permissions defining what a customer (paying or non-paying) can do with your software application.”

• Quantity discounts on a virtual good: The results of a massive pricing experiment - “Implementing price reductions ranging from 9–70% for large purchases, we found remarkably little impact on revenue, either positively or negatively.” If discounts are a placebo and are still widely used in the industry, maybe they are a marketing hack to lure big customers?

• “It used to be I could just give a lump sum and let Google Ads play until there is no more budget. Not anymore.” - (source) - Google Ads used to implement a concept of capped actuals. A kind of monthly budget with rollover, which is an optimal billing scheme to limit surprises for customers. It always looked to me as a way to sell quotas.

Invoice / Electronic invoices

• GOBL - JSON Schema, Open Source Go library, global tax database, with conversion tools, all in one.

10. Awesome No Login Web Apps

Miscellaneous / Others

• 3dHousePlanner - 3D home design application on the web.
