  • excalidraw

    Virtual whiteboard for sketching hand-drawn like diagrams

  • I use excalidraw for almost all of my design work. It's a really lightweight and simple vector based note app that runs in your browser.

  • vim-notgrep

    Vim plugin for alternative search programs like ack or csearch.

  • Use in your text editor to quickly search large code bases with regex. Sift through APIs, find words you only vaguely remember, refactor Lua (or c#/++ renames since it tends to be faster than Visual Assist), etc.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
