  • win32json

    A JSON representation of win32metadata. These files are generated by https://github.com/marlersoft/win32jsongen

  • Operating systems already do language-independent ABI files: https://github.com/marlersoft/win32json so the only thing missing is symbol versioning, which already has solutions: https://github.com/ziglang/glibc-abi-tool

  • 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.
