Top 8 Go plan9 Projects

sha256-simd

1 885 0.0 Go

Accelerate SHA256 computations in pure Go using AVX512, SHA Extensions for x86 and ARM64 for ARM. On AVX512 it provides an up to 8x improvement (over 3 GB/s per core). SHA Extensions give a performance boost of close to 4x over native.

SHA256 is high quality but typically a bit slower. Next Go version will have faster SHA256 on some amd64 CPUs - until then you can try sha256-simd which offers the same.
highwayhash

2 833 5.9 Go

Native Go version of HighwayHash with optimized assembly implementations on Intel and ARM. Able to process over 10 GB/sec on a single core on Intel CPUs - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HighwayHash (by minio)

highwayhash (alt) provides 256 bits. Fast mainly for larger inputs and supports seeds.

Project mention: $Home, Not So Sweet $Home | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-16
opossum

9 380 10.0 Go

Rudimentary web browser written in Golang (by psilva261)

Project mention: Just bought an X230 what should I do now 🤔 | /r/thinkpad | 2023-03-16

Although, technically opossum is modern, it's just not very functional.
edwood

1 350 10.0 Go

Go version of Plan9 Acme Editor

Project mention: Plan 9 from User Space | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-04-28

esc = select the last "stuff" just typed
The fact you can create your own "buttons" that do basically anything is pretty nice, but you REALLY want a 3 button pointing device to use it. It also doesn't care about the programming language you use to create such a button, but you will work with the filesystem metaphor provided by Acme itself to get things done.
I find the mouse interface is extremely fast, and when you couple it with the power of the plumber in Plan 9, it's a reasonably good way to navigate around a complex workflow.
It's also a reasonably small environment in terms of lines of code. The Go version (Edwood) is pretty good too! https://github.com/rjkroege/edwood
cpu

0 207 5.4 Go

cpu command in Go, inspired by the Plan 9 cpu command
yacco

1 28 10.0 Go

9haram clone of the acme text editor

Project mention: The Text Editor Sam by Rob Pike | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-05

There are some forks (or reimplementations) of acme that have more keybindings, allowing you to avoid mouse cording. Here are a couple that I like:

8menu

2 9 10.0 Go

9menu-like launcher in Go

Project mention: Plan 9 – introduction to library functions | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-04

It's always a pleasant surprise to see Plan9 getting some love :)
If you're into plan9, and miss the old 9menu, I'd like to present 8menu! It's written in Go, and uses Fyne for the GUI. It lets you make simple button<-> action toolbars on the fly - https://github.com/donuts-are-good/8menu
