  • homebrew-emacs-head

    GNU Emacs formula for the Homebrew package manager

    • [I was facing this too](https://github.com/tumashu/posframe/issues/30#issuecomment-586370312). I recommend you try out Davide Restivo's [homebrew-emacs-head](https://github.com/daviderestivo/homebrew-emacs-head). It fixed the issue for me.

  • emacs-which-key

    Emacs package that displays available keybindings in popup

    • Interestingly enough which-key, the tool which makes Emacs' key driven abilities available to Emacs newbies is about 6 years old. Spacemacs is also 6 years old and Doom is 5. Magit is older, going back to 2008.

  • 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.
