Resource

My tools that I use and research.

A curated catalog of useful tools and open source projects. Each entry lives in its own Markdown file under tools/, so the list can grow without a database.

Overview

The chart shows the number of projects in each category. Star badges are live; GitHub Actions fetches numeric counts daily and sorts entries by stars within each category.
