LittleJS - The Tiny JavaScript Game Engine That Can
All aboard!
LittleJS is a lightweight 2D JavaScript game engine with a super fast WebGL rendering system. The goal of this project is to be small, simple, and easy to use for a variety of applications from size coding game jams to commercial releases. This engine has everything necessary for most games including super fast rendering, physics, particles, sound effects, music, keyboard/mouse/gamepad input handling, update/render loop, and debug tools.
Features
- Very small footprint with no dependencies
- Can render 10,000+ objects at 60fps, often several times more
- Object oriented system with base class engine object
- 2D physics and collision handling for axis aligned boxes
- Positional audio effects with zzfx and music with zzfxm, mp3s, or wavs
- Input processing system with keyboard, mouse, gamepad, and touch support
- Engine helper functions and classes like Vector2, Color, and Timer
- Tile layer cached rendering…
2. Gitpod
Gitpod automates the provisioning of ready-to-code development environments.
Gitpod
Always ready-to-code.
Gitpod is an open-source Kubernetes application for ready-to-code developer environments that spins up fresh, automated dev environments for each task, in the cloud, in seconds. It enables you to describe your dev environment as code and start instant, remote and cloud-based developer environments directly from your browser or your Desktop IDE.
Tightly integrated with GitLab, GitHub, and Bitbucket, Gitpod automatically and continuously prebuilds dev environments for all your branches. As a result, team members can instantly start coding with fresh, ephemeral and fully-compiled dev environments - no matter if you are building a new feature, want to fix a bug or do a code review.

stampino
A composable DOM template system
Stampino
Stampino is a fast and extremely powerful HTML template system, where you write dynamic templates using real HTML <template> tags:
<template id="my-template">
<h1>Hello {{ name }}</h1>
</template>
Overview
Stampino uses HTML <template> tags to define templates, lit-html for the underlying template rendering, and jexpr for binding expressions.
Stampino is based on the idea that a template defines a function from data to DOM, so it transforms <template> elements into lit-html render functions. Control flow, template composition, and extensibility are built on top of function composition.
This approach leads to a low-cost for features like conditionals and repeating, which are just <template>s themselves:
<template id="my-template">
<h2>Messages</h2>
<template type="if" if="{{ important }}">
<p class="important"…4. react-device-detect

react-device-detect
Detect device, and render view according to the detected device type.
Installation
To install, you can use npm or yarn:
npm install react-device-detect --save
or
yarn add react-device-detect
API
Usage
Example:
import { BrowserView, MobileView, isBrowser, isMobile } from 'react-device-detect';
<BrowserView>
<h1>This is rendered only in browser</h1>
</BrowserView>
<MobileView>
<h1>This is rendered only on mobile</h1>
</MobileView>
if you don't need a view, you can use isMobile for conditional rendering
import {isMobile} from 'react-device-detect';
function App() {
renderContent = () => {
if (isMobile) {
return <div> This content is unavailable on mobile</div>
}
return <div> ...content </div>
}

kbar
kbar is a simple plug-n-play React component to add a fast, portable, and extensible command+k interface to your site.
Background
Command+k interfaces are used to create a web experience where any type of action users would be able to do via clicking can be done through a command menu.
With macOS's Spotlight and Linear's command+k experience in mind, kbar aims to be a simple abstraction to add a fast and extensible command+k menu to your site.
Features
- Built in animations and fully customizable components
- Keyboard navigation support; e.g. ctrl n / ctrl p for the navigation wizards
- Keyboard shortcuts support for registering keystrokes to specific actions; e.g. hit t for Twitter
- Nested actions enable creation of rich navigation experiences; e.g. hit backspace to navigate to the previous action
- A simple data structure which enables anyone to easily build their own custom components
Usage
Have a fully functioning command menu…

envsafe 🔒
Validate access to environment variables and parse them to the right type. Makes sure you don't accidentally deploy apps with missing or invalid environment variables.
========================================
❌ Invalid environment variables
API_URL: Invalid url input: "http//example.com/graphql"
💨 Missing environment variables:
MY_VAR: Missing value or empty string
PORT: Missing value or empty string
========================================
Heavily inspired by the great project envalid, but with some key differences:
- Written in 100% TypeScript
- Always strict - only access the variables you have defined
- Built for node.js and the browser
- No dependencies - tiny bundle for browser/isomorphic apps
- How to use
- Built-in validators
- Custom validators/parsers
- Error reporting
- Strict mode (recommended for JS-users)
How to use
Works the same in the browser and in node. See the ./examples-folder for more examples.
