libjpeg-turbo
SIMD-accelerated libjpeg-compatible JPEG codec library
libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2, NEON, AltiVec) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64, ARM, and PowerPC systems. On such systems, libjpeg-turbo is generally 2-6x as fast as libjpeg, all else being equal. On other types of systems, libjpeg-turbo can still outperform libjpeg by a significant amount, by virtue of its highly-optimized Huffman coding routines. In many cases, the performance of libjpeg-turbo rivals that of proprietary high-speed JPEG codecs. libjpeg-turbo implements both the traditional libjpeg API as well as the less powerful but more straightforward TurboJPEG API. libjpeg-turbo also features colorspace extensions that allow it to compress from/decompress to 32-bit and big-endian pixel buffers (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), as well as a full-featured Java interface. -

raylib
A simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming
raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework. Do you want to see all functions available in raylib? Check raylib cheatsheet. raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no auto-debugging, just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way. raylib has received several recognitions in the last years and many people have written about the library. Here there are the main awards received from Google and Epic Games. raylib supports multiple target platforms, it has been tested in the following platforms but, technically, any platform that supports C language and OpenGL graphics is valid for raylib or can be very easily ported to. raylib can be combined with several extra libraries for additional functionality, some of those libraries are already used internally while others are provided for user integration, most of these libraries are single-file header-only with no external dependencies. -

FreeRDP
FreeRDP is a free remote desktop protocol library and clients
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), released under the Apache license. Enjoy the freedom of using your software wherever you want, the way you want it, in a world where interoperability can finally liberate your computing experience. The nightly builds are installed into /opt/freerdp-nightly and can be installed in parallel with the distributions regular freerdp package. Network tracing of RDP can be quite a challenge due to a number of factors such as encryption, compression, and the fact that these protocol features cannot always be disabled or worked around. One of the easiest way of decrypting RDP traffic is to configure the server with a self-signed certificate for which the private key is known, and then use this certificate with a network tracing tool to automatically decrypt the packets. -

Manage app icons arrangement on the device, install, remove, list and basically manage apps. Activate a device using official servers, manage contacts, calendars, notes and bookmarks, retrieve and remove crashreports. Retrieve various diagnostics information, establish a debug connection for app debugging, mount filesystem images, forward device notifications, manage device provisioning. Take screenshots from the device screen (requires mounted developer image). Simulate changed geolocation of the device (requires mounted developer image). -

Popular components include stb_image.h for image loading, stb_image_write.h for writing images, and stb_truetype.h for font rendering. These libraries are widely used in game development, graphics engines, and multimedia applications due to their simplicity and portability. The project emphasizes ease of use, minimalism, and performance while avoiding bloated frameworks. Maintained and supported by the open source community, stb has become a standard toolkit for C and C++ developers working with images and graphics. -

XNNPACK
High-efficiency floating-point neural network inference operators
XNNPACK is a highly optimized, low-level neural network inference library developed by Google for accelerating deep learning workloads across a variety of hardware architectures, including ARM, x86, WebAssembly, and RISC-V. Rather than serving as a standalone ML framework, XNNPACK provides high-performance computational primitives—such as convolutions, pooling, activation functions, and arithmetic operations—that are integrated into higher-level frameworks like TensorFlow Lite, PyTorch Mobile, ONNX Runtime, TensorFlow.js, and MediaPipe. The library is written in C/C++ and designed for maximum portability, efficiency, and performance, leveraging platform-specific instruction sets (e.g., NEON, AVX, SIMD) for optimized execution. It supports NHWC tensor layouts and allows flexible striding along the channel dimension to efficiently handle channel-split and concatenation operations without additional cost. -

Shaderc
A collection of tools, libraries, and tests for Vulkan shader
Shaderc is a collection of tools and libraries for compiling shaders—small programs that run on GPUs—into SPIR-V, the intermediate representation used by the Vulkan graphics API. It provides both a command-line tool (glslc) and a C/C++ library (libshaderc) that wrap the functionality of glslang (the Khronos reference compiler for GLSL) and SPIRV-Tools to deliver a modern, scriptable, and efficient shader compilation workflow. The glslc compiler offers a GCC/Clang-like interface for building GLSL and HLSL shaders, making it easy to integrate into existing build systems. Meanwhile, libshaderc exposes a stable API that allows developers to programmatically compile shader strings into SPIR-V modules within graphics engines and tools. Shaderc supports advanced features such as file inclusion (#include), concurrency, and cross-platform builds, and it maintains backward compatibility for long-term projects. -

CPU Features
A cross platform C99 library to get cpu features at runtime
cpu_features is a cross-platform C library developed by Google that provides a simple and efficient way to detect available CPU features at runtime across a wide range of architectures and operating systems. It enables applications to determine which instruction sets (such as SSE, AVX, or NEON) are supported on the host machine, allowing developers to optimize performance dynamically. The library supports numerous architectures—including x86, ARM, AArch64, MIPS, POWER, RISCV, LoongArch, and s390x—and works on major operating systems like Linux, macOS, Windows, FreeBSD, Android, and iOS. Implemented in portable C99, it is thread-safe, has no memory allocations, and raises no exceptions, making it suitable even for use in low-level system libraries. The design emphasizes portability, extensibility, and compatibility with sandboxed or restricted environments where direct CPU access may be limited. -

libwlocate is a shared library that can be used for location-based services. It checks for WLAN-networks that are available near to a user and retrieves the current geographic position out of them. Thus no GPS is needed for positioning. This WLAN-based geolocation happens without using any of the commercial services that do the same but track the users position and data. libwlocate instead bases on the free OpenWLANMap project.
