  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • neovim

    Vim-fork focused on extensibility and usability

  • I want to write a formula which installs the latest stable release of neovim, largely because lots of the packaged releases in distro's repos are older and don't have certain features.

  • neomutt

    ✉️ Teaching an Old Dog New Tricks -- IRC: #neomutt on irc.libera.chat

  • I'd also like to do a similar thing with neomutt, which will definitely have to be built from source.

  • 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.
