    Distributed self-replicating programs in Python

  • It's an odd piece of code for 'self-replicating', and I'd say is a bit of obscure project, but it has something amazing: alternative strategies for Ansible to speedup playbooks. It's rough, badly supported, requires patching to run on modern Ansible versions, and you are on your own if you use it, but it's so fast, that's it's impossible to drop. https://mitogen.networkgenomics.com/

  • PyOxidizer

    A modern Python application packaging and distribution tool

  • A starting point to try out binary modules by the way would be https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer - could already have benefits by rolling in all dependencies of modules (so no more pip/apt/dnf/... installs on target hosts). Setting this up should be relatively straightforward and could probably be automated enough to even manage to build binary modules for all modules in the community ansible distribution eventually.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
