For previous +editions, check out +`The Reflog Archive `_. + +This week, we welcome Python's +`simplejson `_ module +and *The Joy of Clojure* +`code examples `_ to +GitHub! + +Featured Repo of the Week +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +`maccman/spine `_ + + Spine is a micro MVC framework for building JavaScript + applications. While similar in concept to + `Backbone.js `_, Spine + contains some key differences. It offers class inheritance, + controllers, a model system with a full ORM, and HTML5 local + storage support. + + Spine comes with demo + `todo system `_ and + `contact manager `_ + applications to give you a feel of its capabilities. It currently + powers the JavaScript for the open source campfire-esque + `Holla `_ project. + + .. figure:: http://f.cl.ly/items/28090E0U1l3l1r0D0k0X/Screen%20shot%202011-04-20%20at%2012.50.42%20PM.png + :align: center + :alt: + + + Check out the + `elegant documentation `_ to + learn more. + +Awesome Repo of the Week +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +`aarongough/flea `_ + + Flea is a mini Lisp interpreter written in Ruby, inspired by + portions of Scheme. Obviously, this isn't designed to be used in + production for any reason. The purpose of the project is to simply + showcase the versatility of dynamic languages like Ruby. + + Run ``$ gem install flea`` to give it a spin. + +Remarkable Repos +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + + +- `anchepiece/statuspanic `_: + A clone of Panic's infamous + `Status Board `_, + powered by PHP. It features bar charts, weather widgets, and a + countdown timer. Head over to the + `example installation `_ + to see it in action. + +- `hanwen/go-fuse `_: + Native FUSE bindings for the Go programming language. Go-fuse + strives to be as fast as possible. Support for individual + filesystems isn't included (at this time), but example + implementations of zipfs and unionfs are. + +- `gmarik/vundle `_: A true + plugin manager for VIM. Inspired by the ever popular + `pathogen `_ for VIM and + `bundler `_ for Ruby, Vundle + gives you the ability to search, install, update, and configure + your scripts, all from interactive mode. + + +Promising Repos +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + + +- `boxedice/python-daemon `_: + A simple Python daemonizer class. This project allows your Python + application to continue running in the background as a daemon. + Features include scheduling, a standard PID file interface, and + support for Unix, Linux and OS X. + +- `88mph/wpadmin `_: Command + line tool for WordPress administration, written in PHP. Currently, + it can manage user accounts and configuration values. In the near + future, you'll also be able to publish posts and pages right from + your terminal. There's a small todo list, so pull requests are + welcome! + +- `disqus/mule `_: A full + distributed test runner framework for Python, powered by Celery. + Beware, it's undergoing heavy development and is far from stable. + When it's ready, it will include out of the box support for xunit, + multiprocessing, and unittest2. + +- `seppo0010/redislite `_: + SQLite-style local database for Redis instead of SQL. This BSD + licensed project is is still in its early stages, but will be + extremely useful once it is complete. Definitely keep your eye on + it. + +- `dbyrne/4clojure `_: An + interactive tutorial website for beginners learning Clojure + (similar to + `Try Redis `_). There's a + bit of work to be done still, so check out the + `issues page `_ for ways + to help. + + +Feedback is appreciated!
