Performance linting, Open-source software engineer, and more. This week’s top open-source projects (March 18th, 2024) #44

Hello friend 👋 , I hope you had a great weekend! I had a great one, thanks for asking 😆 . I am back with another round of exciting open-source projects that you can check out, or maybe even contribute to.

To support me:

  • Share the newsletter with your friends, it helps more than you think!

  • Please share your feedback with me!

You have probably used a linter before. It is a great tool for making your code consistent and readable. Clean and consistent code does not matter if the code isn’t performant.

Million is a “performance linter” for React. It spots mistakes in your code that slow down your app and notifies you about it.

If you read last Friday’s newsletter, or been on the internet at all, you have probably heard of “Devin”, the first AI software engineer.

OpenDevin is an open-source project trying to replicate the functionality of Devin. Although the project will probably never be able to replicate Cognition Labs’ real Devin, it is definitely cool to see people working together on projects like this.

Quartz is a static site generator that's taking the web development world by storm. If you're tired of dealing with slow, bloated websites, Quartz might be just the solution you've been looking for.

Quartz is designed with speed and simplicity in mind. It transforms your Markdown content into fast and fully functional websites. It is already being used by students and teachers all over the world. Whether you're publishing personal notes, building a website, or creating a digital garden, Quartz has got you covered.

If you're an audiobook enthusiast or a podcast junkie, you've probably encountered the struggle of managing your ever-growing collection across multiple devices. AudioBookShelf might just be the solution you've been looking for.

AudioBookShelf is a self-hosted audiobook and podcast server that aims to simplify your audio experience. With its open-source codebase (including the Android and iOS apps in beta), you can bid farewell to proprietary limitations and embrace the freedom of tailoring the platform to your needs.
