Weylus
Use your tablet as graphic tablet/touch screen on your computer
Weylus turns your tablet or smart phone into a graphic tablet/touch screen for your computer! No apps except a modern browser (Firefox 80+, iOS/iPadOS 13+) are required on your tablet. Start Weylus, preferably set an access code in the access code box and press the Start button. This will start a webserver running on your computer. To control your computer with your tablet you need to open the url http://<address of your computer>:<port set in the menu, default is 1701>, if possible Weylus will display to you the url you need to open and show a QR code with the encoded address. If you have a firewall running make sure to open a TCP port for the webserver (1701 by default) and the websocket connection (9001 by default). -

rav1e
The fastest and safest AV1 encoder
rav1e is an open-source implementation of an encoder for the AV1 video codec, developed in Rust (with some assembly) by the community around Xiph Foundation. Its design philosophy is to start from a correct, minimal, and fast AV1 encoder — sacrificing some encoding speed/efficiency of reference encoders in exchange for simplicity, stability, and compilability across platforms — and then gradually improve. This makes rav1e particularly attractive for scenarios where you need AV1 encoding but care about build-time, portability, and maintenance overhead, or where the full-featured reference encoder might be prohibitively slow. Despite aiming for simplicity, rav1e supports a wide range of AV1 features: different bit depths, chroma subsampling formats, prediction and transform modes, and block partitioning options, which means it can produce reasonably efficient compressed video. -

Gifski
Convert videos to high-quality GIFs on your Mac
This is a macOS app for the gifski encoder, which converts videos to GIF animations using pngquant's fancy features for efficient cross-frame palettes and temporal dithering. It produces animated GIFs that use thousands of colors per frame and up to 50 FPS (useful for showing off design work on Dribbble). You can also produce smaller lower quality GIFs when needed with the “Quality” slider, thanks to gifsicle. Gifski supports all the video formats that macOS supports (.mp4 or .mov with H264, HEVC, ProRes, etc). The QuickTime Animation format is not supported. Use ProRes 4444 XQ instead. It's more efficient, more widely supported, and like QuickTime Animation, it also supports alpha channel. Gifski has a bunch of settings like changing dimensions, speed, frame rate, quality, looping, and more. -

Transpiled via Emscripten from FFmpeg and its codecs into WebAssembly. Supports both single-threaded and multi-threaded cores using web workers. Written in TypeScript for improved developer experience. -

libavif
Library for encoding and decoding .avif files
libavif is a portable, open-source C library that implements encoding and decoding for the AVIF (AV1 Image File Format), offering a robust, production-ready way to work with AVIF images across platforms. It supports all AV1-supported YUV formats and bit-depths, including alpha (transparency), and includes command-line tools (avifenc and avifdec) to easily convert to/from AVIF from common image formats like JPEG, PNG, or Y4M. The API is straightforward, allowing applications to integrate AVIF support natively — creating, decoding, compressing, or decompressing images programmatically. Recent developments have added experimental support for HDR gain maps, improved color-space handling (including wide color gamut and high bit depth), and better quality tuning modes for encoding, making libavif a cutting-edge tool for high-quality image compression. -

AV1 AVIF
AV1 Image File Format Specification - ISO-BMFF/HEIF derivative
AV1 AVIF is the official specification and reference design for the AV1 Image File Format (AVIF), defining how AV1-encoded bitstreams are packaged into the HEIF container format (based on ISOBMFF) to produce AVIF files. The project outlines the syntax and semantics required for AVIF compliance, including support for multiple image profiles, color depths, chroma subsampling modes, HDR/WCG, alpha channels, animation/image sequences, and various color-space/bit-depth combinations — making AVIF a versatile, modern image format suitable for both simple photos and advanced imagery needing high fidelity. The specification ensures interoperability across encoders and decoders, providing guidelines so that images created by any compliant AVIF encoder can be reliably decoded by compliant decoders. As adoption grows, AV1 AVIF plays a crucial role in promoting a royalty-free, open, high-efficiency image standard that competes with older formats such as JPEG and newer proprietary ones. -

Lyra
A Very Low-Bitrate Codec for Speech Compression
lyra is a neural audio codec designed to deliver intelligible, natural-sounding speech at extremely low bitrates, making real-time communication viable on constrained networks. It replaces hand-engineered codecs with learned models that capture speech characteristics more efficiently and reconstruct waveforms with a neural vocoder. The system targets mobile-class hardware, balancing latency and quality so it can run in real-time on phones. Its architecture is resilient to packet loss and jitter through framing strategies and error concealment, helping conversations remain understandable under adverse conditions. The codebase includes encoder and decoder components, along with tools for data preparation and evaluation. By pushing bitrates down to just a few kilobits per second while retaining quality, lyra expands access to voice calls where bandwidth is scarce. -
