3. go

   2 2,302 129,613 10.0 Go

   The Go programming language

   

   Ken also submitted this commit to Golang to, as the Git commit message states, spell it with an "e".

4. appvm

   3 2 267 5.7 Go

   Nix-based app VMs

   

   Isolation through virtual machines. Qubes OS is the prime example, also I like appvm a lot.

5. wondershaper

   4 8 1,823 0.0 Shell

   Command-line utility for limiting an adapter's bandwidth

   

   You better never try something like the wondershaper with ifconfig ...

6. redox

   5 12 15,534 9.7 Shell

   Mirror of https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/redox

   

   Maybe it would look a bit like that : https://github.com/redox-os/redox ! :D

7. libconfini

   6 8 174 0.0 C

   Yet another INI parser

   

8. toml

   7 50 20,029 3.6 Python

   Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language

   

   TOML has basically every feature YAML does, except going deeper into tables is not good, but is possible. I really want to like it, but the current nesting situation sucks. And whats worse, there have been proposals to make it suck less bad, but it doesn't look promising. https://github.com/toml-lang/toml/issues/781

10. bubblewrap

    8 82 4,564 4.7 C

    Low-level unprivileged sandboxing tool used by Flatpak and similar projects

    

    From the top of my head -- not exactly a container escape vulnerability, but still pretty bad: https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap/security/advisories/GHSA-j2qp-rvxj-43vj

11. nushell

    9 234 36,244 9.9 Rust

    A new type of shell

    

    There's been some work on implementations for that. nushell deals with structured data and has been making a lot of progress
