  • iiab

    Internet-in-a-Box - Build your own LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA with a Raspberry Pi !

  • https://internet-in-a-box.org/ Bringing a few of these would help the local community!

  • zeal

    Offline documentation browser inspired by Dash

  • There's https://zealdocs.org and it's something similar if not the same. For Mac you need to buy the Dash app.

  • Nexus

    Sonatype Nexus Repository Open-source codebase mirror

  • Setup a caching repository proxy like nexus: https://github.com/sonatype/nexus-public

    This is a little server you run locally and point your package managers like Gradle, pip, npm, etc. at it and it will grab dependencies from their upstream and cache them locally to be available offline later. Once you get it setup go wild adding every dependency you can think of using so it preloads the cache with good stuff. Unfortunately offline caching for package managers is really hit or miss and rarely a priority to support, so expect some pain getting it all setup. Good luck.

  • 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.
