vercel/aiHidden Gem

The AI Toolkit for TypeScript. From the creators of Next.js, the AI SDK is a free open-source library for building AI-powered applications and agents

“The cleanest way to wire streaming LLM responses into a React/Next.js UI - handles the hard parts (streaming, tool calls, edge runtimes) so you don't have to.”

openai/openai-python

“The official, minimal-overhead client for OpenAI's API - the right starting point before reaching for a bigger framework.”

huggingface/transformersEditor's Pick

“The standard library for working with open-weight models - thousands of pretrained models are one line of code away.”

JetBrains/kotlin

“Google's preferred language for Android development - more concise and null-safe than Java, and increasingly used for backend/multiplatform code too.”

vuejs/vue

This is the repo for Vue 2. For Vue 3, go to https://github.com/vuejs/core

“The most approachable of the major frontend frameworks - official docs and tooling are exceptionally well designed for newcomers.”

vercel/next.js

The React Framework

“The default choice for production React today - server components, file-based routing, and first-class deployment story make it the fastest path from idea to shipped app.”

tailwindlabs/tailwindcss

A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.

“Utility-first CSS that's become the default styling approach for new projects - fast to write, easy to keep consistent, no dead CSS to prune later.”

sveltejs/svelteHidden Gem

“Compiles away most of its own runtime, so shipped bundles are smaller and components read closer to plain HTML/JS/CSS than any mainstream alternative.”

facebook/react

“Still the most widely deployed UI library in the industry - the ecosystem, tooling, and hiring pool around it are unmatched.”

angular/angular

“A batteries-included framework rather than a library - trades some flexibility for a consistent, well-documented way to structure large applications.”

supabase/supabaseEditor's Pick

The Postgres development platform. Supabase gives you a dedicated Postgres database to build your web, mobile, and AI applications.

“A genuinely open-source Firebase alternative - real Postgres underneath, with auth, storage, and realtime built in rather than a proprietary database.”

kubernetes/kubernetesEditor's Pick

“The industry-standard container orchestrator - not always necessary at small scale, but the default assumption for any serious cloud-native platform team.”

postgres/postgresEditor's Pick

“The most capable open-source relational database available - strong standards compliance, extensions for nearly everything (including full-text search and vectors), and a default choice for good reason.”

BerriAI/litellmEditor's PickHidden Gem

“Unifies dozens of LLM providers behind a single API, making model switching almost effortless in production.”

vitejs/viteEditor's Pick

“The modern default frontend build tool - native ESM in dev means a dev server that starts and reloads almost instantly, even on large apps.”

moby/mobyEditor's Pick

“The open-source engine behind Docker - understanding containers here pays off no matter which orchestrator sits on top later.”
