Everything is an open-source project aiming to recreate a broad range of proprietary software as free alternatives. Its code is organized in one monorepo, with applications spanning office work, collaboration, creative production, engineering, productivity, finance, business operations, developer tools, and games. The listed projects target familiar products such as Excel, Slack, Photoshop, AutoCAD, Salesforce, and Postman. The project presents itself as an effort to rebuild software from scratch, rather than as a single application, and provides links to try individual tools and inspect their code.
The catalog includes spreadsheets, documents, presentations, whiteboards, email, calendars, photo and video editors, CAD and circuit-design tools, task and project managers, accounting and CRM systems, and an API client. It also offers playable chess, backgammon, checkers, solitaire, and Sudoku, with features such as online play, cloud saves, and puzzle hints in some games. To run an application locally, developers need Node.js 22.12 or newer, then clone the project, enter an app’s directory under src, install dependencies, and start its development server. The project uses the MIT license unless a component specifies otherwise; third-party libraries may have separate terms.

Pratt parsing uses binding powers and recursion to handle operator precedence in expressions. A programmer compares it with the shunting-yard algorithm while exploring a C-expression parser for a future compiler. (unix.dog)
Blaze is an open-source tool that claims incremental Rust builds can be up to 92 times faster than Cargo and rustc. It targets faster rebuilds for Rust development workflows. (github.com)
OpenGL ES 3.0 remains a practical choice for teaching introductory graphics because students can build 3D scenes with code and shaders that work across platforms. Moving to a newer API would require substantial course updates without clear benefits for the course’s goals. (eliasfarhan.ch)
WineVDM lets 16-bit Windows applications from versions 1.x through 3.1 run on 64-bit Windows. The open-source project is hosted on GitHub. (github.com)
Corridor Digital’s CorridorKey 2.0 is a one-time-purchase keying plugin for Windows with NVIDIA GPUs, supporting Resolve, Nuke, After Effects, Premiere, and Blender. It includes a standalone batch-processing app and offers high-resolution, HDR keying designed to reduce flicker. (corridorkey.com)
Explorer starts a program with its containing folder as the current directory, while a batch file may use a different directory. Changing to the program’s folder with `pushd` before launching it fixed the problem. (devblogs.microsoft.com)
