libjpeg-turbo
SIMD-accelerated libjpeg-compatible JPEG codec library
libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2, NEON, AltiVec) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64, ARM, and PowerPC systems. On such systems, libjpeg-turbo is generally 2-6x as fast as libjpeg, all else being equal. On other types of systems, libjpeg-turbo can still outperform libjpeg by a significant amount, by virtue of its highly-optimized Huffman coding routines. In many cases, the performance of libjpeg-turbo rivals that of proprietary high-speed JPEG codecs. libjpeg-turbo implements both the traditional libjpeg API as well as the less powerful but more straightforward TurboJPEG API. libjpeg-turbo also features colorspace extensions that allow it to compress from/decompress to 32-bit and big-endian pixel buffers (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), as well as a full-featured Java interface. -

Memory Efficient Serialization Library
FlatBuffers is an open source, cross-platform serialization library designed for maximum memory efficiency. Originally created at Google for game development and other performance-critical apps, FlatBuffers has the unique ability of allowing you to directly access serialized data without having to parse or unpack beforehand. Since the only memory needed to access your data is that of the buffer, it is also very memory efficient and fast. FlatBuffers supports Windows, MacOS, Linux and Android, as well as any other operating systems with a recent C++ compiler. It supports a great number of programming languages, including C++, C#, C, Go, Java, Kotlin, JavaScript, Lobster, Lua, TypeScript, PHP and many others in progress. -

FreeRDP
FreeRDP is a free remote desktop protocol library and clients
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), released under the Apache license. Enjoy the freedom of using your software wherever you want, the way you want it, in a world where interoperability can finally liberate your computing experience. The nightly builds are installed into /opt/freerdp-nightly and can be installed in parallel with the distributions regular freerdp package. Network tracing of RDP can be quite a challenge due to a number of factors such as encryption, compression, and the fact that these protocol features cannot always be disabled or worked around. One of the easiest way of decrypting RDP traffic is to configure the server with a self-signed certificate for which the private key is known, and then use this certificate with a network tracing tool to automatically decrypt the packets. -

Ionicons
Hand-crafted icons built by Ionic for web apps
Premium designed icons for use in web, iOS, Android, and desktop apps. Support for SVG and web font. Completely open source, MIT licensed and built by Ionic. Ionicons is a completely open-source icon set with 1,300 icons crafted for web, iOS, Android, and desktop apps. Ionicons was made for Ionic Framework, a cross-platform hybrid and Progressive Web App framework. The Ionicons Web Component is an easy and performant way to use Ionicons in your app. The component will dynamically load an SVG for each icon, so your app is only requesting the icons that you need. Also note that only visible icons are loaded, and icons which are "below the fold" and hidden from the user's view do not make fetch requests for the svg resource. If you're using Ionic Framework, Ionicons is packaged by default, so no installation is necessary. -

Point Cloud Library
A standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image processing
The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. Whether you’ve just discovered PCL or you’re a long time veteran, this page contains links to a set of resources that will help consolidate your knowledge on PCL and 3D processing. An additional Wiki resource for developers is available too. To simplify both usage and development, we split PCL into a series of modular libraries. PCL is cross-platform, and has been successfully compiled and deployed on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Android. To simplify development, PCL is split into a series of smaller code libraries, that can be compiled separately. This modularity is important for distributing PCL on platforms with reduced computational or size constraints. -

kotlinx.coroutines
Library support for Kotlin coroutines
Library support for Kotlin coroutines with multiplatform support. Kotlin, as a language, provides only minimal low-level APIs in its standard library to enable various other libraries to utilize coroutines. Unlike many other languages with similar capabilities, async and await are not keywords in Kotlin and are not even part of its standard library. Moreover, Kotlin's concept of suspending function provides a safer and less error-prone abstraction for asynchronous operations than futures and promises. kotlinx.coroutines is a rich library for coroutines developed by JetBrains. It contains a number of high-level coroutine-enabled primitives that this guide covers, including launch, async and others. Coroutines can be thought of as light-weight threads, but there is a number of important differences that make their real-life usage very different from threads. -

socket.io
Realtime application framework (Node.JS server)
socket.io is a JavaScript library that allows for realtime, bi-directional communication between web clients and servers. It is composed of two parts: a Node.js server and a JavaScript client library that runs in the browser. socket.io is focused on both reliability and speed, delivering an immensely powerful, fast and yet easy to use realtime engine that’s used by just about everyone: from Microsoft Office and Zendesk to hackathon winners and small startups. It’s considered one of the most depended-upon npm modules, and works on every platform, browser or device. -

FastClick
Easy-to-use library to remove click delays on browsers with touch UIs
FastClick is a simple, easy-to-use library for eliminating the 300ms delay between a physical tap and the firing of a click event on mobile browsers. The aim is to make your application feel less laggy and more responsive while avoiding any interference with your current logic. FastClick is developed by FT Labs, part of the Financial Times. Note: As of late 2015 most mobile browsers - notably Chrome and Safari - no longer have a 300ms touch delay, so fastclick offers no benefit on newer browsers, and risks introducing bugs into your application. Consider carefully whether you really need to use it. The library has been deployed as part of the FT Web App. FastClick doesn't attach any listeners on desktop browsers. -

LibChecker
An app to view libraries used in apps in your device
This app is used to view the third-party libraries used by applications in your device. It can view the ABI architecture of the application's native library (in general, whether the application is 64-bit or 32-bit). It can also view well-known libraries marked by The Rule Repository, and can even sort and view them according to the number of libraries references. -

OpenBLAS
Optimized BLAS library based on GotoBLAS2 1.13 BSD version
OpenBLAS is an optimized BLAS library based on GotoBLAS2 1.13 BSD version. The BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are routines that provide standard building blocks for performing basic vector and matrix operations. The Level 1 BLAS performs scalar, vector and vector-vector operations, the Level 2 BLAS performs matrix-vector operations, and the Level 3 BLAS performs matrix-matrix operations. Because the BLAS are efficient, portable, and widely available, they are commonly used in the development of high-quality linear algebra software, LAPACK for example. The reference BLAS is included inside the LAPACK package. Please refer to tools built under Windows using Cmake the cross-platform, open-source build system. The new build system was developed in collaboration with Kitware Inc. Machine-specific optimized BLAS libraries are available for a variety of computer architectures. These optimized BLAS libraries are provided by the computer vendor or by an independent software vendor. -

KMP NativeCoroutines
Library to use Kotlin Coroutines from Swift code in KMP apps
A library to use Kotlin Coroutines from Swift code in KMP apps. Both KMP and Kotlin Coroutines are amazing, but together they have some limitations. The most important limitation is cancellation support. Kotlin suspend functions are exposed to Swift as functions with a completion handler. This allows you to easily use them from your Swift code, but it doesn't support cancellation. Besides cancellation support, ObjC doesn't support generics on protocols. The library consists of a Kotlin and Swift part which you'll need to add to your project.
