3. FastHash

   2 3 22 6.2 C#

   

   At the moment I'm working on FastHash[1], a pet project of mine to port a few high-performance non-cryptographic hash functions to C#.

   I'm also trying to build FastLinq, a value-by-reference Language Integrated Query (LINQ) optimized for high-performance scenarios. It is kind of a weird mix as LINQ in .NET is known for its high overhead.

   Finally, I'm working on an Office setting synchronization application. I heard a podcast with Paul Thurrott complaining about the lack of sync solutions, so I thought I would do one for fun.

5. needle

   4 4 15 4.3 Rust

   A CLI tool that finds a needle (opening/intro and ending/credits) in a haystack (TV or anime episode). (by aksiksi)

   

   I’ve been working on needle[1], a CLI (and associated library) that can detect openings/intros and endings/credits across TV or anime episodes. It decodes audio, fingerprints it in chunks, and then compares chunks across files to find common sequences.

   Right now, it works pretty well as a CLI app. However, the eventual goal is to wrap the library in a Jellyfin plugin (C#) that handles skipping intros. I think I’ve figured how to call a C library from C#, but there is a lot of work to do to actually get a functional plugin.

   A handheld, esp32-based implementation of the pico-8[0] console. Basics work already, sidetracked into writing a terrible Lua to C++ compiler to squeeze some extra performance out of some pathological-case games.

    8 37 556 9.7 Svelte

    Discontinued A fully featured UI toolkit for Svelte + Tailwind. [Moved to: https://github.com/skeletonlabs/skeleton] (by Brain-Bones)

    

    The startup I was working for went under at the end of May, so I've been putting my focus into a new UI component library I started at the beginning of the year. It's called Skeleton [1] and utilizes Svelte + Tailwind. Makes building UI for SvelteKit apps a breeze.

    Reception has been great so far, just trying to get the word out and gather feedback and additional contributors.

    I launched a Discord community today. Feel free to stop by and say hello! [2]
