Apktool
A tool for reverse engineering Android apk files
A tool for reverse engineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications. It also makes working with an app easier because of the project like file structure and automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk, etc. It is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms, analyzing applications and much more. The decode option on Apktool can be invoked either from d or decode. In order to run a rebuilt application. You must resign the application. Android documentation can help with this. As you probably know, Android apps utilize code and resources that are found on the Android OS itself. These are known as framework resources and Apktool relies on these to properly decode and build apks. -

React Native Navigation
A complete native navigation solution for React Native
React Native Navigation is a module, dependent on and intended to be used alongside React Native, so some experience with it and knowledge of core concepts is required. We also assume you are working on a Mac with XCode and Android Studio installed and setup. You can also make it work in a Linux distribution, of course, but in that case bear in mind that some sections of the docs that deal with iOS might not be relevant to you. When your app is launched for the first time, the bundle is parsed and executed. At this point you need to display your UI. To do so, listen to the appLaunched event and call Navigation.setRoot when that event is received. When your app is launched, RN makes sure JS context (which is what enables you to execute JavaScript code) is running. There are quite a few differences between iOS and Android in this regard. -

fat-aar-android
A gradle plugin that merge dependencies into the final aar file
fat-aar-android is a Gradle plugin that allows Android developers to package their AAR (Android Archive) libraries with all of their dependencies included. Normally, AARs do not bundle transitive dependencies, leading to missing classes or resource issues when consumed. This plugin solves that by merging the compile-time dependencies into a single "fat" AAR, streamlining distribution and reuse of libraries in projects where managing dependencies separately isn't ideal. -

Bootstrap 3 for Sass
Sass port of Bootstrap 2 and 3
Bootstrap 3 for Sass is a Sass-powered version of Bootstrap 3, ready to drop right into your Sass powered applications. This is Bootstrap 3. For Bootstrap 4 use the Bootstrap rubygem if you use Ruby, and the main repo otherwise. Get the lowdown on the key pieces of Bootstrap's infrastructure, including our approach to better, faster, stronger web development. Bootstrap makes use of certain HTML elements and CSS properties that require the use of the HTML5 doctype. Include it at the beginning of all your projects. With Bootstrap 2, we added optional mobile friendly styles for key aspects of the framework. With Bootstrap 3, we've rewritten the project to be mobile friendly from the start. Instead of adding on optional mobile styles, they're baked right into the core. In fact, Bootstrap is mobile first. Mobile first styles can be found throughout the entire library instead of in separate files. -

React Content Loader
SVG-Powered component to easily create skeleton loadings
Tool to easily create your animated skeleton-screen components, replacing usual loading and delivering better experiences for users, giving a wireframe of your pages like placeholders boxes for content and images.

You can use any SVG shapes to create the loader elements. It’s easy to create an animated placeholder, which shines from left to right. It has a few pre-styled content loaders (e.g, Facebook, Instagram). Since SVG supports a lot of shapes, it can be used for any complex UI. You can simply design your loader based on the page and edit the size, background, and foreground. Also, you can add the radius to the border, add or remove shapes such as rectangle and circle, and select the speed of the animations. -

Vue Native
Vue Native is a framework to build cross platform native mobile apps
Vue Native is a framework to build cross-platform native mobile apps using JavaScript. It is a wrapper around the APIs of React Native.

Incrementally build user interfaces with the familiar syntax of HTML and CSS in single file components. Seamless interop with React Native. Use core React Native components with Vue.js syntax out of the box to develop mobile apps on both iOS and Android. The Vue Native CLI can be used to easily generate a fully configured Vue Native app. It wraps expo-cli and react-native-cli to generate a simple single page application (SPA) after installing and configuring dependencies from vue-native-core. You should have either expo-cli or react-native-cli installed as a global dependency. -
24
Litho
A declarative framework for building efficient UIs on Android
Litho uses a declarative API to define UI components. You simply describe the layout for your UI based on a set of immutable inputs and the framework takes care of the rest. With code generation, Litho can perform optimisations for your UI under the hood, while keeping your code simple and easy to maintain. Litho can measure and layout your UI ahead of time without blocking the UI thread. By decoupling its layout system from the traditional Android View system, Litho can drop the UI thread constraint imposed by Android. Litho uses Yoga for layout and automatically reduces the number of ViewGroups that your UI contains. This, in addition to Litho's text optimizations, allows for much smaller view hierarchies and improves both memory and scroll performance. -

V Programming Language
Simple, fast, safe, compiled language for developing software
Simple language for building maintainable programs. You can learn the entire language by going through the documentation over a weekend, and in most cases, there's only one way to do something. This results in simple, readable, and maintainable code. Despite being simple, V gives a lot of power to the developer and can be used in pretty much every field, including systems programming, webdev, gamedev, GUI, mobile, science, embedded, tooling, etc. V avoids doing unnecessary allocations in the first place by using value types, and string buffers, promoting a simple abstraction-free code style. Most objects (~90-100%) are freed by V's auto-free engine: the compiler inserts necessary free calls automatically during compilation. A remaining small percentage of objects is freed via GC. The developer doesn't need to change anything in their code. "It just works", like in Python, Go, or Java, except there's no heavy GC tracing everything or expensive RC for each object.
