FineTune
FineTune, a macOS menu bar app to control volume for each app
FineTune is a macOS menu bar application that gives users fine-grained control over system audio by allowing them to adjust volume levels for individual applications independently, route audio streams to different output devices, and apply personalized equalizer settings. It fills a gap in macOS audio control by providing more advanced routing and audio shaping capabilities than the default system controls, making it useful for power users, audio professionals, and anyone needing precise management of their sound environment. Through a clean, minimal interface accessible from the menu bar, FineTune lets users isolate and balance application volumes, assign specific outputs (like headphones versus speakers), and tweak equalization to enhance or tailor audio based on content or personal preference. Its integration into the OS workflow means that these adjustments persist across sessions and respect the user’s choices without requiring constant interaction with deeper system settings. -

WhiteSur GTK Theme
MacOS like theme for all gtk based desktops
WhiteSur-gtk-theme brings a macOS Big Sur–inspired look to Linux desktops by providing a polished GTK theme with light and dark variants, rounded shapes, and refined translucency. It includes assets and installer scripts to apply the theme across GTK applications and desktop shells that support GTK theming, aiming for a cohesive, high-contrast interface. The project pays attention to details like window controls, titlebars, selection states, and widget hover effects so apps feel consistent from toolkits to system settings. Configuration options typically allow tweaking accents and choosing variants that match different desktop environments and icon sets. Documentation guides users through installing prerequisites, applying the theme, and resolving common edge cases across distributions. For Linux users who prefer Apple’s visual style but want open platforms, WhiteSur offers a maintained, community-driven path to a modern, visually unified desktop. -

Thaw
Menu bar manager for macOS 26
Thaw is a macOS menu bar management app focused on hiding, showing, and organizing menu bar items, with the broader goal of being a versatile customization toolkit rather than a single-purpose hider. It is a fork of the Ice project created to keep the concept actively maintained, fix bugs, and stay compatible with the latest macOS releases, especially newer versions where menu bar behavior and APIs have changed. At its core, Thaw provides multiple ways to reveal hidden items (hover, click empty space, scroll or swipe) and can automatically rehide items to keep the menu bar clean without constant manual toggling. It also supports a dedicated “always-hidden” section, drag-and-drop arrangement of items, and options to display hidden items in a separate bar, which can be particularly useful on MacBooks with notches. -

WhiteSur Icon Theme
MacOS Big Sur style icon theme for linux desktops
WhiteSur-icon-theme is a Linux icon theme that faithfully recreates the macOS Big Sur icon set’s look and feel, giving your desktop a sleek, polished visual identity inspired by Apple’s design language. It includes a broad selection of icons for many popular applications, utilities, and system features, ensuring most graphical elements on your desktop adopt the unified appearance. The theme is designed to integrate seamlessly with GTK- and icon-themed desktops, helping users achieve a consistent aesthetic across panels, launchers, and app menus. Installation scripts provide easy methods to deploy the icons into your system or local user directory, and options let you tweak the icon style or destination. Because it mimics a well-known visual design, it’s particularly popular among users who want to bring macOS-like polish to their Linux desktops without sacrificing performance. -

System Design Primer
Learn how to design large-scale systems
System Design Primer is a curated, open source collection of resources that helps engineers learn how to design large-scale systems. The project is structured as a comprehensive guide covering core system design concepts, trade-offs, and patterns necessary for building scalable, reliable, and maintainable systems. It offers both theoretical foundations—such as scalability principles, the CAP theorem, and consistency models—and practical exercises, including real-world system design interview questions with sample solutions, diagrams, and code. The repository also contains study guides for short, medium, and long interview timelines, allowing learners to focus on both breadth and depth depending on their preparation needs. In addition, it includes flashcard decks designed to reinforce learning through spaced repetition, making it easier to retain key system design knowledge. -

ReacType
Prototyping Tool for exporting React/Typescript Applications!
ReacType is a rapid prototyping tool built on Electron that allows users visualize their application architecture dynamically, employing a drag-and-drop canvas display and an interactive, real-time component code preview that can be exported as a React app for developers employing React component architecture alongside the comprehensive type-checking of TypeScript. In other words, you can draw prototypes and export React / TypeScript code! After opening the dmg and dragging ReacType into your Applications folder, ctrl+click the icon and select 'Open' from the context menu to run the app. This extra step is necessary since we don't have an Apple developer license yet. If you are given a warning that Apple could not scan the app. Users can now manage state dynamically within nested components using React Hooks within the state manager tab. For a selected component, users can see a list of available props from the parent, add props, and delete props in case they are not required later on. -

Styled Components
Visual primitives for the component age
Visual primitives for the component age. Use the best bits of ES6 and CSS to style your apps without stress. Utilising tagged template literals (a recent addition to JavaScript) and the power of CSS, styled-components allows you to write actual CSS code to style your components. It also removes the mapping between components and styles, using components as a low-level styling construct could not be easier! Alternatively, you may use style objects. This allows for easy porting of CSS from inline styles, while still supporting the more advanced styled-components capabilities like component selectors and media queries. styled-components is compatible with both React (for web) and React Native, meaning it's the perfect choice even for truly universal apps! If you're using tooling that has babel-plugin-macros set up, you can switch to the styled-components/macro import path instead to gain the effects of the babel plugin without further setup. -

Custom CSS and JS
Custom CSS Plugin for Visual Studio Code. Based on vscode-icon
Custom CSS and JS is a Visual Studio Code extension that allows users to inject custom CSS and JavaScript into the editor interface, enabling deep visual and behavioral customization beyond what standard themes provide. The tool works by modifying VS Code’s internal styling system, allowing developers to override UI elements such as fonts, colors, spacing, and layout with their own stylesheets. This makes it possible to create highly personalized development environments tailored to individual preferences or workflows. In addition to aesthetic changes, users can also inject JavaScript to modify certain UI behaviors, effectively extending the editor’s functionality in unconventional ways. The extension is often used to implement custom themes, improve readability, or experiment with alternative interface designs. However, because it alters internal files, it may require reapplying changes after updates and can raise stability considerations. -
