Tiny CUDA Neural Networks
Lightning fast C++/CUDA neural network framework
This is a small, self-contained framework for training and querying neural networks. Most notably, it contains a lightning-fast "fully fused" multi-layer perceptron (technical paper), a versatile multiresolution hash encoding (technical paper), as well as support for various other input encodings, losses, and optimizers. We provide a sample application where an image function (x,y) -> (R,G,B) is learned. The fully fused MLP component of this framework requires a very large amount of shared memory in its default configuration. It will likely only work on an RTX 3090, an RTX 2080 Ti, or high-end enterprise GPUs. Lower-end cards must reduce the n_neurons parameter or use the CutlassMLP (better compatibility but slower) instead. tiny-cuda-nn comes with a PyTorch extension that allows using the fast MLPs and input encodings from within a Python context. These bindings can be significantly faster than full Python implementations; in particular for the multiresolution hash encoding. -

CppSharp
Tools and libraries to glue C/C++ APIs to high-level languages
CppSharp is a tool and set of libraries that facilitates the usage of native C/C++ code with the .NET ecosystem. It consumes C/C++ header and library files and generates the necessary glue code to surface the native API as a managed API. Such an API can be used to consume an existing native library in your managed code or add managed scripting support to a native codebase. The supported target languages at present are C# and C++/CLI. It can also be used as a library to parse native code into a syntax tree with a rich declaration and type information model. Generates the glue binding code from a syntax tree of the native code. Provides APIs for parsing of C/C++ source code into a syntax tree. Mirrors the Clang's C/C++ AST and type system classes in C# APIs. -

Aglyph
Aglyph is a Dependency Injection framework for Python.
Aglyph is a Dependency Injection framework for Python, supporting type 2 (setter) and type 3 (constructor) injection. Aglyph runs on CPython (http://www.python.org/) 2.7 and 3.4+, and on recent versions of the PyPy (http://pypy.org/>),Jython (http://www.jython.org/), IronPython (http://ironpython.net/), and Stackless Python (http://www.stackless.com/) variants. Aglyph can assemble "prototype" components (a new instance is created every time), "singleton" components (the same instance is returned every time), "borg" components (a new instance is created every time, but all instances of the same class share the same internal state), and "weakref" components (the same instance is returned as long as there is at least one "live" reference to the instance in the running application). Aglyph can be configured using a declarative XML syntax, or programmatically in pure Python using a fluent API. -

ASP.NET API Versioning
Libraries which add service API versioning to ASP.NET Web API
ASP.NET API versioning gives you a powerful, but easy-to-use method for adding API versioning semantics to your new and existing REST services built with ASP.NET. The API versioning extensions define simple metadata attributes and conventions that you use to describe which API versions are implemented by your services. You don't need to learn any new routing concepts or change the way you implement your services in ASP.NET today. The default API versioning configuration is compliant with the versioning semantics outlined by the Microsoft REST Guidelines. There are also a number of customization and extension points available to support transitioning services that may not have supported API versioning in the past or supported API versioning with semantics that are different from the Microsoft REST versioning guidelines. -

AWS IoT Device Defender Library
Client library for using AWS IoT Defender service on embedded devices
The Device Defender library enables you to send device metrics to the AWS IoT Device Defender Service. This library also supports custom metrics, a feature that helps you monitor operational health metrics that are unique to your fleet or use case. For example, you can define a new metric to monitor the memory usage or CPU usage on your devices. This library has no dependencies on any additional libraries other than the standard C library, and therefore, can be used with any MQTT client library. This library is distributed under the MIT Open Source License. This library has gone through code quality checks including verification that no function has a GNU Complexity score over 8, and checks against deviations from mandatory rules in the MISRA coding standard. Deviations from the MISRA C:2012 guidelines are documented under MISRA Deviations. This library has also undergone static code analysis using Coverity static analysis. -

AWS IoT Device Shadow library
Client library for using AWS IoT Shadow service on embedded devices
The AWS IoT Device Shadow library enables you to store and retrieve the current state (the “shadow”) of every registered device. The device’s shadow is a persistent, virtual representation of your device that you can interact with from AWS IoT Core even if the device is offline. The device state is captured as its “shadow” within a JSON document. The device can send commands over MQTT to get, update and delete its latest state as well as receive notifications over MQTT about changes in its state. Each device’s shadow is uniquely identified by the name of the corresponding “thing”, a representation of a specific device or logical entity on the AWS Cloud. See Managing Devices with AWS IoT for more information on IoT "thing". More details about AWS IoT Device Shadow can be found in AWS IoT documentation. This library is distributed under the MIT Open Source License. -

Bash Infinity
A modern standard library / framework / boilerplate for Bash
Bash Infinity is a standard library and a boilerplate framework for writing tools using bash. It's modular and lightweight while managing to implement some concepts from C#, Java or JavaScript into bash. The Infinity Framework is also plug & play: include it at the beginning of your existing script to import any of the individual features such as error handling, and start using other features gradually. The aim of Bash Infinity is to maximize the readability of bash scripts, minimize the amount of code repeat and create a central repository for a well-written, and a well-tested standard library for bash. Bash Infinity transforms the often obfuscated "bash syntax" to a cleaner, more modern syntax. Some components are more sturdy than others, and as-it-stands the framework lacks good test coverage (we need your help!). -

Cecil
Cecil is a library to inspect, modify and create .NET programs
Cecil is a library to inspect, modify and create .NET programs and libraries. Mono.Cecil is a library to generate and inspect programs and libraries in the ECMA CIL form. Analyze .NET binaries using a simple and powerful object model, without having to load assemblies to use Reflection. Modify .NET binaries, add new metadata structures and alter the IL code. Cecil has been around since 2004 and is widely used in the .NET community. If you're using Cecil, or depend on a framework, project, or product using it, please consider sponsoring Cecil. Cecil 0.10 beta 5 addresses a long standing issue: previously, a rewrite of native pdb files would lose some debugging information, including the list of namespaces that were used in methods (and thus breaking the expression evaluation) or the scopes in generators (for iterators or async methods). -

Design Patterns Library
A comprehensive design patterns library implemented in C#
A comprehensive design patterns library implemented in C#, which covers various design patterns from the most commonly used ones to the lesser-known ones. Get familiar with and learn design patterns through moderately realistic examples. In software engineering, a design pattern is a general repeatable solution to a commonly occurring problem in software design. A design pattern isn't a finished design that can be transformed directly into code. It is a description or template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations. In addition, design patterns allow developers to communicate using well-known, well-understood names for software interactions. Know when to use a certain design pattern, and when not to. No design pattern is a 42 - the answer to life, the universe and everything. There are situations in which every design pattern easily becomes an antipattern. -
