libcurl
A command line tool and library for transferring data with URL syntax, supporting DICT, FILE, FTP, FTPS, GOPHER, GOPHERS, HTTP, HTTPS, IMAP, IMAPS, LDAP, LDAPS, MQTT, POP3, POP3S, RTMP, RTMPS, RTSP, SCP, SFTP, SMB, SMBS, SMTP, SMTPS, TELNET, TFTP, WS and WSS. libcurl offers a myriad of powerful features
Project mention: libcurl VS FileCentipede - a user suggested alternative | libhunt.com/r/curl | 2023-01-30 -
Project mention: It is wise to deploy multiple nodejs instance in multicore CPU? | reddit.com/r/node | 2023-01-11
That is not strictly true. Node.Js uses a single thread to execute your javascript code. But, underneath there is libuv that spawns thread-pool to execute DNS lookups, FS calls and crypto - by default the size of that pool is 4 threads.
-
SonarQube
Static code analysis for 29 languages.. Your projects are multi-language. So is SonarQube analysis. Find Bugs, Vulnerabilities, Security Hotspots, and Code Smells so you can release quality code every time. Get started analyzing your projects today for free.

Project mention: What C source code or library do you use for a local server? | reddit.com/r/C_Programming | 2023-01-27
If you are looking for something simple there is mongoose from cesanta, https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose

You're welcome! If this is for mission-critical or commercial use, you will want to invest in a good TURN server to ensure a reliable connection between peers. You can either self-host your own Coturn server or pay for a service like Twilio. But if this is just a hobby project, you can just use the free Open Relay Project.

InfluxDB
Build time-series-based applications quickly and at scale.. InfluxDB is the Time Series Platform where developers build real-time applications for analytics, IoT and cloud-native services. Easy to start, it is available in the cloud or on-premises.
-
cjdns
An encrypted IPv6 network using public-key cryptography for address allocation and a distributed hash table for routing.
Project mention: Tailscale/golink: A private shortlink service for tailnets | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-12-13From a purely networking perspective, there are far better solutions than tailscale.
Have a look at full mesh VPNs like:
https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns
https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go
https://github.com/gsliepen/tinc
https://github.com/costela/wesher
These build actual mesh networks where every node is equal and can serve as a router for other nodes to resolve difficult network topologies (where some nodes might not be connected to the internet, but do have connections to other nodes with an internet connection).
Sending data through multiple routers is also possible. They also deal with nodes disappearing and change routes accordingly.
tailscale (and similar solutions like netbird) still use a bunch of "proxy servers" for that. You can set them up on intermediate nodes, but that have to be dealt with manually (and you get two kinds of nodes).

It's odd, because the nat-pmp/pcp configuration does support a lifetime configuration (apparently not exposed by the OPNSense UI). I assume that's not shared by the UPnP code path. Even so, time-limited rules was one of the security additions with UPnP v2, so I would doubt "unlimited" would be an option if it were made configurable. It really feels like this is on Xbox to implement properly. Other UPnP consumers like Plex handle it just fine.

LibRG is an open-source, C99 header-only that handles actor relevancy, similar to Unreals Actor Relevancy Graph.

Project Calico's per-host agent Felix, responsible for programming routes and security policy.

nope.c
WAFer is a C language-based software platform for scalable server-side and networking applications. Think node.js for C programmers.

Project mention: Worried about server security and seperation with Mirror Networking | reddit.com/r/Unity3D | 2022-02-14
You definitely want to a low level API (LLAPI) instead, like f.ex. LiteNetLib, ENet, lidgren or similar. I haven't touched anyone of these recently, except the first one a year-ish ago, so I won't say anything about where they stand today.
