Helm

The Linux Foundation

Helm helps you manage Kubernetes applications, Helm charts help you define, install, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes application. Charts are easy to create, version, share, and publish, so start using Helm and stop the copy-and-paste. Charts describe even the most complex apps, provide repeatable application installation, and serve as a single point of authority. Take the pain out of updates with in-place upgrades and custom hooks. Charts are easy to version, share, and host on public or private servers. Use helm rollback to roll back to an older version of a release with ease. Helm uses a packaging format called charts. A chart is a collection of files that describe a related set of Kubernetes resources. A single chart might be used to deploy something simple, like a memcached pod, or something complex, like a full web app stack with HTTP servers, databases, caches, and so on.

Servo

Servo’s mission is to provide an independent, modular, embeddable web engine, which allows developers to deliver content and applications using web standards. Servo is written in Rust, and shares code with Mozilla Firefox and the wider Rust ecosystem. Since its creation in 2012, Servo has contributed to W3C/WHATWG web standards by reporting specification issues and submitting new cross-browser automated tests, and core team members have co-edited new standards that have been adopted by other browsers. As a result, the Servo project helps drive the entire web platform forward while building on a platform of reusable, modular technologies that implement web standards. Pre-built nightly snapshots allow developers to try Servo and report issues without building Servo locally. Now that we’ve released our first developer preview, we’ll be investing in formal security audits and improving our security practices using both existing libraries and Rust.

Yarn

Yarn is a package manager which doubles down as project manager. Whether you work on one-shot projects or large monorepos, as a hobbyist or an enterprise user, we've got you covered. Split your project into sub-components kept within a single repository. Yarn guarantees that an install that works now will continue to work the same way in the future. Yarn cannot solve all your problems, but it can be the foundation for others to do it. We believe in challenging the status quo. What should the ideal developer experience be like? Yarn is an independent open-source project tied to no company. Your support makes us thrive. Yarn already knows everything there is to know about your dependency tree, it even installs it on the disk for you. So, why is it up to Node to find where your packages are? Instead, it should be the package manager's job to inform the interpreter about the location of the packages on the disk and manage any dependencies between packages and even versions of packages.

Nix

NixOS

Nix is a tool that takes a unique approach to package management and system configuration. Learn how to make reproducible, declarative, and reliable systems. Nix builds packages in isolation from each other. This ensures that they are reproducible and don't have undeclared dependencies, so if a package works on one machine, it will also work on another. Nix makes it trivial to share development and build environments for your projects, regardless of what programming languages and tools you’re using. Nix ensures that installing or upgrading one package cannot break other packages. It allows you to roll back to previous versions and ensures that no package is in an inconsistent state during an upgrade. Nix is a purely functional package manager. This means that it treats packages like values in purely functional programming languages such as Haskell, they are built by functions that don’t have side effects, and they never change after they have been built.

Restyled

Style is important. Any time there's more than one way to do something in code, inconsistencies will creep in. Besides measurably adding to the time it takes to read and comprehend code, inconsistent style across a codebase can hide bugs, often very bad ones. Great tools exist for almost every language to automatically align code to a defined style. Through editor integrations or git pre-commit hooks, a single developer can give themselves a great workflow for automatically dealing with style. Doing this across a team, on the other hand, can be challenging. Restyled makes it easy to maintain, or transition to, a consistent coding style across your entire organization by integrating directly into your existing pull request process. Open a pull request that changes files in one of our many, many supported languages. If it doesn't conform to your preferred style, a status check will fail and point to another pull request where it's been restyled.

Just a few angular.js directives are super easy to learn to put things together. Mobile Angular UI retains most of the Bootstrap 3 syntax. This way it’s trivial to bring an existing desktop web app to mobile. Also, a super-small CSS file is provided to do the opposite. Just include it and you’ll get a fully responsive and touch-enabled interface that can be used everywhere. FontAwesome Icons are included by default in place of Glyphicons.
