Simple.css is a classless CSS template that allows you to make a good looking website really quickly. By classless I mean that there are no CSS classes anywhere in the CSS or the HTML. So your website can look just like this using plain old vanilla HTML.
When starting a new project, I wanted a CSS framework that would get me up and running quickly, and give me something I could hack on. I got sick of all these giant frameworks that include everything but the kitchen sink, 90% of which I’ll never use. For example, the minified CSS for the Bootstrap framework is 144KB in total. By comparison, Simple.css is around 4KB.
Includes a good looking sans-serif local font stack, typographic best practices, automatic flipping to dark mode, and sensible defaults.
A clean, easy to edit free HTML template that you can use for a personal blog or for documentation purposes for your next project! Written in pure HTML - no CSS classes. Some cool features about this template include compatibility with static hosting (including Github Pages), automatic flipping to dark mode, fully responsive, uses standard HTML elements only, Markdown support, and it's easy to style with your own CSS.
simple-homepage is a command line utility that helps you create a simple static homepage for your browser. The documentation can be found here.
PikaScript is an ultra-lightweight Python engine with zero dependencies and zero-configuration, that can run with 4KB of RAM and 32KB of flash (such as STM32G030C8 and STM32F103C8).
A meta-search engine a little like Searx. Not as featureful, not many features, but for something quick and dirty to just get stuff done it seems to do the job. No Javascript. Self hosted. Strips tracking codes out of URLs it finds. Lightweight - no Composer stuff, all self contained. Has an API but not REST.
For something in between a pytorch and a karpathy/micrograd. This may not be the best deep learning framework, but it is a deep learning framework. Due to its extreme simplicity (<= 1000 lines of code), it aims to be the easiest framework to add new accelerators to, with support for both inference and training. Support basic ops and you get SOTA vision and language models.
Implementation of a super-lightweight network file system for sharing files across and between 8-bit computers. Originally designed for the Spectrum but has been ported to the Atari. Implementations exist for Linux, Spectrum, and Atari.

ViperDB is a lightweight embedded key-value store written in pure Python. It has been designed for being extremely simple while efficient. The main db file consists of just ~300 lines of code. Thanks to the small codebase, every single line of code is tested. Takes design concepts by log-structured databases such as Bitcask. Written in pure Python - no external dependency needed.
JavaScript is great, and by all means use it, while also being aware that you can build so many functional UI components without the additional dependancy.
Maybe you can include a few lines of utility code, or a mixin, and forgo the requirement. If you're only targeting more modern browsers, you might not need anything more than what the browser ships with.
This site is fully copied from youmightnotneedjquery.com, an excellent resource for vanilla JavaScript created by @adamfschwartz and @zackbloom. But this time, we take a look at the power of modern native HTML and CSS as well as some of the syntactic sugar of Sass. Because, you might not need scripts for that task at all!
PyNeedle is a convenient tool created to allow you to quickly search for files in your computer, using one of the supported search engines (i.e. Tracker and Recoll). It is focused on searching by filename, and be used as one of the primary means to access your files in the daily work. Besides, it supports Full Text Search (FTS) mode for deeper searches.
A lightweight CSS framework for personal sites.
faasd is OpenFaaS reimagined, but without the cost and complexity of Kubernetes. It runs on a single host with very modest requirements, making it fast and easy to manage. Under the hood it uses containerd and Container Networking Interface (CNI) along with the same core OpenFaaS components from the main project. Will work on something as lightweight as a RasPi or a $5us VPS. Doesn't use Kubernetes so maintenance and upgrading is far easier. Implemented as a single executable binary.
Use this starter kit to create a viable, good looking, production-ready website whose entire size does not exceed 2 KB compressed when opened in a browser. Ideally, the total size of all assets (HTML, CSS, favicon, etc.) downloaded by the browser when opening the page will be under 2 KB. You need npm and gulp installed to assemble it, but once you have it everything you need will be in the dist/ subdirectory.
Wiby is a search engine for older style pages, lightweight and based on a subject of interest. Building a web more reminiscent of the early internet.
A collection of shell scripts for light-weight containers. Just requires posix shell and some tools, which makes it easy to run it even on busybox. Even lets you stand up containers that use QEMU to run software for other architectures.
πmenu is a pie menu utility for X. πmenu receives a menu specification in stdin, shows a menu for the user to select one of the options, and outputs the option selected to stdout. Works like a UNIX-native utility: Reads an input, prints an output. Submenus. Pie slices with icons. Supports native Xresources. Very lightweight.
A set of small, responsive CSS modules that you can use in every web project. Pure is ridiculously tiny. The entire set of modules clocks in at 3.7KB minified and gzipped. Crafted with mobile devices in mind, it was important to us to keep our file sizes small, and every line of CSS was carefully considered. If you decide to only use a subset of these modules, you'll save even more bytes. Has all of the primitives that you'd expect from a CSS framework.
A minimal Matrix chat client, focused on performance, offline functionality, and broad browser support. Tries to be as desktop friendly as it is mobile friendly. UI components are reusable and composable. Can be added to an existing site. Stores everything locally. Right now it's a PoC.
This is the most basic version of a self-hosted persistent chatroom. A simple chat webapp. Quick and dirty. Basic admin functionality. Push notification enabled.
