Open Source Python Design Software for ChromeOS

System Design Primer is a curated, open source collection of resources that helps engineers learn how to design large-scale systems. The project is structured as a comprehensive guide covering core system design concepts, trade-offs, and patterns necessary for building scalable, reliable, and maintainable systems. It offers both theoretical foundations—such as scalability principles, the CAP theorem, and consistency models—and practical exercises, including real-world system design interview questions with sample solutions, diagrams, and code. The repository also contains study guides for short, medium, and long interview timelines, allowing learners to focus on both breadth and depth depending on their preparation needs. In addition, it includes flashcard decks designed to reinforce learning through spaced repetition, making it easier to retain key system design knowledge.

A simple framework for plugin system development with as few dependencies as possible. It is designed to offer a set of very lean classes (plugin managers and plugin interfaces) which can easily be customised by decoration or inheritance. Yapsy v1.x supports Python2 and Python3. Its source package contains versions of the sources for both pythons. Yapsy v2+ supports Python 3 and it's development happens now on https://github.com/tibonihoo/yapsy/ Usage samples, advices and developer's documentations are available on the main website.

The SkyWater PDK is the first broadly available open-source process design kit for a commercial-grade CMOS node, enabling researchers, startups, and students to design real ASICs without proprietary NDAs. It provides the essential artifacts for digital and analog flows: SPICE models, DRC/LVS rules, extraction decks, and technology files for open tools like Magic and KLayout. Standard-cell libraries and IO pads are included so digital designers can use open synthesis and place-and-route to reach a manufacturable GDS. Because the PDK is open, it becomes a common target for community reference designs, open tapeouts, and teaching curricula. Documentation and example flows show how to assemble complete toolchains, from RTL to sign-off, using open EDA components. The project effectively lowers the barrier to custom silicon, catalyzing an ecosystem around an accessible 130-nm process.

Frontend Slides is a lightweight tool that enables users to create visually appealing, animation-rich web presentations without requiring knowledge of CSS or JavaScript by leveraging a guided, interactive workflow. It operates on a “show, don’t tell” philosophy, generating visual previews of styles so users can select their preferred design rather than describing it abstractly. The system produces fully self-contained HTML presentations with inline CSS and JavaScript, eliminating the need for external dependencies, build tools, or frameworks. It also supports converting existing PowerPoint files into web-based presentations while preserving content such as images, text, and structure. The tool includes curated design presets that avoid generic AI-generated aesthetics, ensuring presentations feel distinctive and intentional. Its architecture uses progressive disclosure, loading only necessary components at each step to keep the workflow efficient and intuitive.

Protoreto is a GPL-licensed tool to create prototypes of graphical user interfaces (GUIs). NOTE: This project is not actively maintained at the moment. If you'd like to continue developing Protoreto, please send an e-mail to: wikipedian@users.sf.net

Executable UML command-line interpeter and metamodel. Intended future import-export compatibility for proprietary xtUML and iUML metamodels and model compilers. Emphasis on analysis/implementation separation and parallel processing implementations.

A simple multiplatform interpreted language, which stores data in a universal XML format.

Modular python IDE with integrated GUI designer and many plugins.

Libverticale's mission is to provide semantic web services for an artists center.

Lipsum is a wxPython-based random text generator what is especially useful for those, who're creating web designs, typographical layouts, etc.

Mallard is a graphical game design package, akin to many applications for Windows such as The Games Factory, RPG Maker, Game Maker, etc. It is written in Python with wxWidgets and PyGame, and therefore should support any OS which supports Python and SDL.

Design by Contract allows a programmer to document a function/class with statements describing behavior. Metacontract implements the PEP-0316 related to this feature for the Python language using meta classes.

PYWAL is a highly popular tool that automatically generates a color scheme from any image (usually your wallpaper) and then applies it across your Linux or Unix desktop. It analyzes the input image, extracts a palette, and builds theme files for terminals, window managers, and various desktop applications so everything looks coordinated. The magic is that it’s not just a one-off script: it supports many terminals, shells, and launchers, and can export the colors in multiple formats (JSON, Xresources, CSS) for other programs to consume. It also includes a set of predefined themes if you don’t want to generate from an image. Many users integrate PYWAL into their login or wallpaper-change workflows so the desktop “breathes” with whatever image they set. It’s lightweight, fast, and fits perfectly into the r/unixporn workflow of building cohesive, themed desktops.

Phino is a advanced GUI Language written on top of Python and wxPython to write GUIS in a simplified way. It supports many of the operations of python and seperates the design from the coding

Roc's purpose is to serve as a tool for those who know little about programming. It strives to create RPGs similar to those on your video game console. Roc is written in Python and wxPython. It will support all platforms compatible with wxPython.

A graphical IDE and Model Driven Architecture for designing Overlay Networks and Peer-to-Peer systems.

Design and develop Recommendation and Adaptive Prediction Engines to address eCommerce opportunities. Build a portfolio of engines by creating and porting algorithms from multiple disciplines to a usable form. Try to solve NetFlix and other challenges.

snavtofamix is part of FETCH (http://www.lore.ua.ac.be/Research/Artefacts/fetch/), transforming C++ and Java source code facts parsed by Source Navigator into a FAMIX CDIF model for usage in reverse engineering environments.

An AToM3 definition of a CASE framework for creating Zope products with files in the filesystem. The framework consists of a modelling notation ZProduct and a suit of related transformations.

Simloc is the tool intended for finding similar chunks (blocks) of code. It could be used in reverse software engineering. It is faster than SimScan, find better blocks than PMD/CPD (not just exact blocks also similar) and could be runed at GRID.
