assimp
The official Open-Asset-Importer-Library Repository. Loads 40+ 3D-file-formats into one unified and clean data structure.
Curiously, what people commonly refer to as 'Waterfront OBJ' is merely a tiny subset of that format dealing with polygons.
The format supports e.g. higher order curves and surfaces and apps like Maya or Rhino3D can read and write OBj files containing such data. [1]
Writing a parser for the polygon subset also comes with some caveats.
If your target is a GPU you probably need to care for robust triangulation of n-gons and making per-face-per-vertex data per-vertex on disconnected triangles.
Vice versa, if you are feeding data to an offline renderer you want to absolutely preserves such information.
I believe the tobj Rust crate is one of the few OBJ importers that handles all edge cases. [2] If you think it doesn't, let me know and I will fix that.
This is surprising for people familiar with one but not the other of the requirements of offline- or GPU rendering.
I.e. if you write an OBJ reader this can become an issue, see e.g. an issue I opened here [3].

sherpa-onnx
Speech-to-text, text-to-speech, speaker diarization, speech enhancement, and VAD using next-gen Kaldi with onnxruntime without Internet connection. Support embedded systems, Android, iOS, HarmonyOS, Raspberry Pi, RISC-V, x86_64 servers, websocket server/client, support 11 programming languages
I used FFI in the past but sherpa-onnx is available on pub.dev these days. Look for "sherpa_onnx".
You can also point sherpa_onnx in your pubspec.yaml file to a local dir (after cloning the repo somewhere on your file system) or point to a specific git commit hash, and don't forget to specify the path because its not the root of the repo. Here's a link to the dir of the flutter package https://github.com/k2-fsa/sherpa-onnx/tree/master/flutter
