Performance

Top 23 Performance Open-Source Projects

  • Gin

    Gin is a HTTP web framework written in Go (Golang). It features a Martini-like API with much better performance -- up to 40 times faster. If you need smashing performance, get yourself some Gin.

  • Project mention: How to Build and Document a Go REST API with Gin and Go-Swagger | dev.to | 2024-03-08

    Now let’s define the functions that will be called whenever a request hits our API. All the functions will be referencing the context provided by the Gin web framework. Paste the following code below the sample slice we just added to api.go:

  • Fiber

    ⚡️ Express inspired web framework written in Go

  • Project mention: อย่าเพิ่งใช้ fiber ถ้ายังไม่ได้อ่าน doc | dev.to | 2023-10-31
  • 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.

  • solid

    A declarative, efficient, and flexible JavaScript library for building user interfaces.

  • fastify

    Fast and low overhead web framework, for Node.js

  • Project mention: Should you use jest as a testing library? | dev.to | 2023-07-27

    For example, Fastify removed the instanceof operatorfrom its codebase because it was causing problems for those developers that rely on jest as a testing framework.

  • leakcanary

    A memory leak detection library for Android.

  • Project mention: Armando9213 | /r/ethereum | 2023-11-28
  • sharp

    High performance Node.js image processing, the fastest module to resize JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and TIFF images. Uses the libvips library.

  • Project mention: Next.js and Bunny CDN: Complete Guide to Image Uploading with Server Actions | dev.to | 2024-04-21

    Last thing left is to use our new upload function in our server action. Since I like to upload images in single format and have some more control over them, I will additionally use sharp library. For file name, I'll generate some random string using nanoid:

  • react-virtualized

    React components for efficiently rendering large lists and tabular data

  • Project mention: The Secret Weapon of Top Developers: 7 React JS Libraries You Can't Afford to Ignore | dev.to | 2024-02-21

    You may increase the rendering efficiency of tabular and huge list data by using the React Virtualized module. React apps perform better overall when the quantity of requests and DOM elements is limited. React Virtualized is comparable to many other tools; however, what sets it apart from the competition is the sheer volume of features and excellent upkeep.

  • 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.

  • Project mention: K6: A modern load testing tool, using Go and JavaScript | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-08
  • ava

    Node.js test runner that lets you develop with confidence 🚀

  • Project mention: Painless CLI integration testing | dev.to | 2024-01-10

    We use Jest Framework for testing. Jest is not a dogma, and, of course, in its place can be any other test runner, such as Mocha or Ava. Let's focus on tests. I'll provide a short example because I don’t want to waste your time. You can find the full version here. It's crucial to read the comments in the code below. Let's go!

  • DoraemonKit

    一款面向泛前端产品研发全生命周期的效率平台。

  • C++ Format

    A modern formatting library

  • Project mention: C++ left arrow operator (2016) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-24

    Continuation passing monads form the basis of a perfectly valid and usable software architecture and programming pattern.

    In the case of ostream and operator<<, this pattern reduces the number of intermediate objects that would otherwise be constructed.

    If you object to iostream on religious or stylistic grounds, there's always fmt which is more like Go or Python string interpolation.[0]

  • lazysizes

    High performance and SEO friendly lazy loader for images (responsive and normal), iframes and more, that detects any visibility changes triggered through user interaction, CSS or JavaScript without configuration.

  • Project mention: Optimizing Images for Developer Blogs | dev.to | 2024-02-20

    Use a JavaScript library to implement lazy loading. There are a number of JavaScript libraries available that can help you implement lazy loading, such as Lazysizes and Lozad.

  • Project mention: Making AMD GPUs competitive for LLM inference | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-09

    Yes, this is coming! Myself and others at OctoML and in the TVM community are actively working on multi-gpu support in the compiler and runtime. Here are some of the merged and active PRs on the multi-GPU (multi-device) roadmap:

    Support in TVM’s graph IR (Relax) - https://github.com/apache/tvm/pull/15447

  • why-did-you-render

  • Project mention: Too many rerenders in react? | /r/webdev | 2023-06-02
  • Nuitka

    Nuitka is a Python compiler written in Python. It's fully compatible with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11. You feed it your Python app, it does a lot of clever things, and spits out an executable or extension module.

  • Project mention: Py2wasm – A Python to WASM Compiler | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-22

    Thanks for the feedback! I'm Syrus, main author of the work on py2wasm.

    We already opened a PR into Nuitka to bring the relevant changes upstream: https://github.com/Nuitka/Nuitka/pull/2814

    We envision py2wasm being a thin layer on top of Nuitka, as also commented in the article.

    From what we gathered, we believe that there's usefulness on having py2wasm as a separate package, as py2wasm would also need to ship the precompiled Python distribution (3.11) for WASI (which will not be needed for the other Nuitka use cases), apart of also shipping other tools that are not directly relevant for Nuitka
