  • desktop

    A better offline editor for Scratch 3. (by TurboWarp)

  • PhysicsExamples2D

    Examples of various Unity 2D Physics components and features.

  • 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.

  • Godot

    Godot Engine – Multi-platform 2D and 3D game engine

    I'm kind of a beginner, but as someone who really likes getting visual feedback, I think 2D gamedev is a good place to start. Try Godot [1] which uses GDScript, a language similar to Python or Unity [2] which uses a more complex scripting language (C#) but has a lot more tutorials for it.

  • vanitygen-plusplus

    A vanity address generator for BTC, ETH, LTC, TRX and 100+ more crypto currencies.

    It probably wouldn't be that hard to package.

    For example, I committed this to a fork of a C++ package a few days ago just to be able to build it in Nix; it's literally just 1 step away to go from building it here to putting this in nixpkgs but I don't want to be responsible for it (I've also never taken that step yet) and it also doesn't (yet) use Flakes: https://github.com/10gic/vanitygen-plusplus/blob/master/defa...

    In theory, though, you'd just have to find a similar Node example out there and crib off its nix config/build file. And if you converted it to a flake, you'd have a guaranteed-reproducible build (but then you'd also be responsible for updating it). Perhaps that's why nixpkgs has one of the highest package counts in the Linux space of package managers.
