This is related to the goals I have for https://github.com/conartist6/macrome, except that my focus is on restoring forking potential for frontend development.
I expect if forks become more abundant that the need for trust will be a major driver of merges.

quickjs-emscripten
Safely execute untrusted Javascript in your Javascript, and execute synchronous code that uses async functions
I want the web to be more end-user programmable. Web apps big and small should offer plugin extension mechanisms! Ideally plug-ins are frictionless to author, and powerful enough to build fun UIs. Today, only really big premier apps like Figma and Google Docs have this kind of feature.
One problem is that it’s very difficult for an app to run arbitrary, untrusted user code in a way that’s secure and efficient, especially in the browser. Apps need to worry about XSS and unintended remote code execution, much less try adding those things as a feature.
I started working on a Typescript/WebAssembly library around the QuickJS JavaScript runtime to address this need. QuickJS runs modern ES2020 and provides an API for the host process to set CPU and memory budgets for the execution environment. My work so far exposes a basic interface to create VMs, expose APIs from the host to the guest, and evaluate code.
Repo: https://github.com/justjake/quickjs-emscripten
NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/quickjs-emscripten
Areas of work:
- Make the library importable as ES modules on the web without a Webpack build step.
- Design higher-level but still security-conscious APIs for building plugin systems on top of the existing library.
- Expose more QuickJS C APIs to library users.
- Performance or ergonomic improvements.
If you share any of these goals or would like to help out, please drop me a line.

Can you say what left you confused?
I'm surprised, I thought https://github.com/catern/rsyscall is pretty self-contained and self-explanatory (if unclear on what exactly rsyscall is useful for), and I thought http://catern.com/integration.html is quite detailed (perhaps excessively so).

YaCy [1] already exists, but I've never tried it. I've been wanting to set it up (locally at first, not participating in the decentralized network, unless I really like it) to crawl only sites I choose to add to the list – I was thinking perhaps just blogs and documentation that I like, along with anything I bookmark.
That being said, I think YaCy looks dated, the website has several typos, and I get the impression that not many people are still active in the network. I feel that a new project with similar technology in a "hotter" language (just for popularity's sake) could get a lot more traction.

Hey I am working on a opensource web based note taking tool called Bangle.io [0]. This is a pretty crowded space with new tools showing up every other day. Bangle.io tries to stand out by providing allowing users to own their data and not locking them to a cloud provider. I also have plans to add extensions and the ability for multiplayer collaboration in the future. If this spikes your interest please find me at [1].

https://platelet.app https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet
I'm working on a project to develop a dispatch system for volunteer emergency couriers, aka blood bikes. They deliver samples, blood, donated breast milk and equipment between hospitals around the UK, as well as supply blood to air ambulances.
The app is meant to replace a system of pen, paper and spreadsheets that the service is mostly being run on. I've been working directly with the charities for it to best suit their needs.
It uses React, JavaSript, Material UI, Jest, Redux and React Testing Library. Eventually I'd like to develop a React Native mobile app too.
There are some details on the issues page https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet/issues about some of the work that still needs to be done.
I have a Discord too although it's a little quiet - https://discord.gg/tWhCM98ckB
I'd be glad to hear from anyone who feels like they'd want to contribute. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me (Ducky) on Discord.

web_app_from_scratch
One script for every web framework which sets up a minimal web app with routing, templates and users.
I am building an open source web framework comparison.
The idea is to put together a project that gives an overview of how to set up a minimal viable web application from scratch via all the different frameworks.
For each framework the project features a self explanatory shell script. So there is no ambiguity of how to reproduce the results. And it is even possible to just copy&paste the steps into a docker container and see the framework in action.
The shell script for each repo starts from scratch and builds a web app with routing, templates and user accounts.
Here is the repo:
https://github.com/no-gravity/web_app_from_scratch
So if you want to compare how do you use a template, you can look at the "Let's use templates" part and have a quick overview of how it is done in Django, Laravel, Flask, Symfony, NextJS...
So far, I wrote the beginning of the Django script and two developers contributed Laravel and Symfony scripts. So far we have routing and templates. All three still need user accounts.
If you are experienced in a web framework, feel free to add to one of the scripts or a new one and send a pull request!

I'm building a live video cdn backed by a kademlia dht (the BitTorrent one). https://github.com/mixable/cdn
No major benefit of using a dht except it's kinda cool that the entire thing runs sans centralized database.
If you're interested, the space is what my startup is working on but the cdn specifically is mostly a fun tangent to learn about kademlia for me.

I recently took over maintaining https://github.com/capacitor-community/camera-preview because lots of people find embedding a camera in their apps useful and it hadn't been updated for ages.
I'm not a Swift programmer, or Kotlin, and haven't touched Java in a decade. I would love to collaborate with people on this project. I can offer lots of enthusiasm, I'll handle all the user-facing stuff and managing GitHub issues and support requests, project admin and writing documentation :)
There is much to do and I've plenty of ideas, but not got the coding skills to know where to start.

the-bootstrap-approach
Python library and tooling for modeling the performance of light aircraft 🛩️🏔.
I'm an instrument-rated pilot. I'm working on a Python library to model aircraft performance with just a few numbers specific to your airplane (e.g., the drag coefficient, and some measurements). I used performance data generated by the library to fly across the entire United States at altitudes and with efficiency beyond the POH.

TL;DR--an automatic xkcd recommendation bot. [1]
"Relevant xkcd" is a meme that's been a part of online communities for as soon as the comic had gained notoriety on online communities. [2] I wanted to build a bot to see how true that was. I've got a lot of the hard parts completed, sitting in my TODO box for quite some time and would love to pair up with a collaborator to get it across the finish line.
The idea is an automatic xkcd recommendation bot that takes advantage of the latest and greatest in NLP advances (a fine-tuned hugging face model). [3] I've already got the training data (reddit comments that mention "relevant xkcd") and each individual xkcd's notes from the xkcd wiki. [4, 5]

Working in a GENERAL relational language (ie: not just a query one, like SQL, but general to make full apps, like python/delphi/c# + linq):
that is my attempt to resurrect the spirit of the FoxPro/dbase kind of tools.
Is on Rust, and is also my way to sharp my skills on it.
Now, I'm in the process of improve the parsing to be robust like in Rust, so i can show good error messages:
https://github.com/brendanzab/codespan
and also, hopefully, implement a solid type inference that work fine with the challenge of infer joins like "customer CROSS JOIN address".
---
The idea, long-term, is create a tool alike MS Access/FoxPro+Excel that I think could be great for a lot of companies (that are using stuff like "BigData" tools -like hadoop- when them are struggling with more fundamental issues!) and improve the condition of make business apps/analysis.
I already hear some interest when the vision is described in full, and I certain any company that use Excel/Access to deal with data and/or make business apps is anemically served by it.
The alternatives now are only for the cloud, and I instead wanna a local-first/on-premise offering...

I'm writing a FHIR server in NodeJS. The currently widely used FHIR server is a JAVA based monolith called HAPI FHIR.

I'm working on Nap[1], a fast, file-based framework for defining and running HTTP integration tests via the CLI.
The ultimate goal is to embed Nap into the SDLC--tests that are defined during development and then run during CI/CD. I'm closing in on a V1 release of the CLI tool, at which point I'll be looking to start expanding on the feature-set and add a UI.
I could use contributors who are comfortable building something Postman-esque as e.g. a VSCode plugin that could take advantage of the file-based nature of my project and make it more approachable for the masses.

If someone is interested I am trying to build a distributed engine based on QuantLib.
QuantLib is an opensource quantitative finance library implemented in C++. I think it would be useful and to me the main goal now would be to know use cases to implement them, mostly what type of financial products would people like to have, in case there are any.
It is implemented in C++, gRPC and Flatbuffers

I'm working on https://ubikom.cc, end-to-end encrypted email service based on the concept of self-sovereign identity. Basically, you keep the encryption key, and all your messages are encrypted, on the wire or at rest. The core platform is open-source, the code is available here: https://github.com/regnull/ubikom
Billions of users use GMail (or similar services). These companies are making money by selling ads, and their "free" email service is just another way to improve ad targeting. Furthermore, your account can be disabled at any time and for any reason. Sure, you can switch to Protonmail, Tutanota, etc. because they are "good" companies. But why do you have to trust to any of them? Keep your encryption key, and have communication providers move around encrypted bytes on your behalf. Store your identity on a blockchain (maybe), so that no one can take it away.
That's the idea. If you'd like to work on something like this, get in touch. lgx (at) ubikom.cc

There's no money in it, as I haven't monetized it and don't plan to, but if you're interested in chess, have ideas for training tools, have some design skills, any of the above, let me know, would love to collaborate. Also open a mentoring sort of thing, if anyone wants to get some exp w/ React or Rust, as that's what it's built in.

I'm working on INET256, a 256 bit network address space for easily and securely connecting applications.
https://github.com/inet256/inet256
- The API is focused around sending and receiving messages to addresses derived from public keys.
- Each application can have its own stable address.
- Runs as a daemon process which is configured with peering information. Additional network nodes can be spawned through the API.
- Can easily support arbitrary routing algorithms through a well defined interface.
- A TUN device (similar to CJDNS or Yggdrasil) is included as a separate application. (The IP6 Portal)

I contribute to Optikey and was involved in OpenVoiceFactory in its first incarnation.

django-rest-framework-gis
Geographic add-ons for Django REST Framework. Maintained by the OpenWISP Project.
OpenWRT is missing a big piece of the puzzle: configuration management and the ability to work with a "controller". OpenWRT is currently great at running stand-alone but has essentially zero support for being part of a "fleet" of devices managed centrally.
This means something as simple as changing the network name or password requires changing it on every single access point manually, and even worse if your mesh system relies on sharing frequently-changing state between devices.
OpenWISP tries to address this problem: https://openwisp.org - I suggest you check it out and solve the configuration management problem first.
The actual "mesh" part is actually relatively easy. Most commercial systems use basic Linux networking tools, HostAPd (sometimes with custom improvements, but this all ends up upstreamed or reimplemented upstream given enough time) and custom glue code to tie them together. A "mesh" system is typically a user-facing network being broadcast by all APs (with shared settings such as name and password) and an invisible, "backhaul" network each AP hosts (either on a separate interface or on the same interface as the AP - I believe some wireless cards can act both as AP and station as long as the channel is the same) and the other in the path connects to, and the glue code handles configuring all of that. 802.11s is also an option that can be used, and I'm pretty sure all of this is already possible to configure manually in Linux - what's lacking is the "glue code" to set up & manage all of this automatically.

go-littr
Discontinued Link aggregator inspired by (old)reddit using ActivityPub federation. (mirror repository) [Moved to: https://github.com/mariusor/brutalinks]
I started a go project to create a link aggregator similar to HN and old reddit, but built on top of ActivityPub.
It's targeted at small to medium communities, but at the same time it can reach outward through the federation mechanism that ActivityPub provides. Outside of immediate support to intercommunicate with other instances of its own platform, it will handle interactions from the larger fediverse at large: Mastodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, etc.
Currently this is a one man project, namely me, and I would welcome support in any area that people could help: development, design, documentation, graphics, copy, etc.
The project can be found at https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr, and if anyone is interested there is a mailing list where people can get in touch: https://lists.sr.ht/~mariusor/activitypub-go
Some details about the project can be found on its wiki: https://man.sr.ht/~mariusor/go-activitypub/brutalinks/index....

A cross-platform command-line utility that creates projects from cookiecutters (project templates), e.g. Python package projects, C projects.
I'd suggest keeping the project templates in Cookiecutter-style repos (https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter) instead of embedding them as heredocs in a shall script.

I'm building an IBM 5150 emulator. Most of it is therefore an 8086 (technically 8088 but no difference for this) emulator. I have it successfully booting the BIOS and running BASIC in ROM (Casette BASIC). I'd like to boot DOS. I could use help with the disk support chips (everything is low level emulation right now) and more CGA graphics modes. It's just a hobby project—I'm not looking to make it performant, just working.
It's written in poor C++ with SDL.
