Top 16 C++ Tool Projects
-
I've been vibe coding some music tools and after some researching let Claude get going with imgui (https://github.com/ocornut/imgui) to build a tool I use for local authoring. It's pretty pixel-dense and looks alright to me. It runs on MacOS and Linux, which is enough for my needs now. Claude has been pretty decent at getting audio stuff going on MacOS and can even tap into various accelerators in MacOS libraries. It's had no problems loading and playing mp3s and m4as, which is the majority of my collection. I'll probably prototype an music manager off of that. It'd be great if it works out for Android as well.

Project mention: Modular hardcoded circuits for computer vision plus autonomous production tools | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-03-26Oops, the URL was supposed to go to https://github.com/SwuduSusuwu/SusuLib/discussions/52#discus... (which discusses how to produce formulas suitable for hardcoded circuits with 100% reproducible results which scholars/professors can do analysis of to prove that such autonomous tools will perform at worst 99% as good as humans (for most conditions, will improve).

GroupModerBot is a reliable Telegram moderation bot designed to help you maintain order in your groups. It provides administrators with a flexible warning system, allowing them to issue warnings, and automatically mute or ban repeat offenders based on configurable thresholds.
Project mention: The Evolution of a C++ Telegram Bot: From "Spaghetti" in main() to OOP, In-Memory Cache, and Fibonacci Mutes | dev.to | 2026-05-18In this article, I'll talk about the evolution of my project — GroupModerBot, a bot for moderating Telegram groups. I'll show how the project went from the first 'all-in-one-file' version to a well-thought-out architecture with OOP, in-memory caching, safe command execution, and non-standard user punishment algorithms.
