  • difftastic

    a structural diff that understands syntax 🟥🟩

    • There are syntax-aware diff tools that go some way to solving this: https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic

  • Gittyup

    Understand your Git history!

    • As to which git client to use, I highly recommend Tower -- if you want a free option then Gittyup is pretty good.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
