In their own words

awesome

awesome is a Linux window manager for X built as a configurable framework, not a complete desktop environment. It is aimed at power users, developers and others who want detailed control over their graphical environment. Lua provides its extension mechanism, while keyboard control covers all operations without a mouse. Windows can be assigned to one or more tags, with multiple tags visible at once; XRandR provides per-screen desktops for multihead setups. The manager implements EWMH, XDG Base Directory, XEmbed, Desktop Notification and System Tray standards, and supports D-Bus. Lua extensions cover dynamic tagging, widgets, tabs and layouts. Its maker says asynchronous XCB makes it less subject to latency than window managers based on Xlib. Packages are available for several Linux and BSD distributions. The listed latest stable release is version 4.3, dated 28 January 2019. The free software is licensed under GNU GPLv2.

Reloop

Reloop is an email delivery platform for transactional and programmatic workflows, available as hosted plans or self-hosted on infrastructure you control. It provides a transactional API and SMTP relay, plus webhook-based inbound routing and dedicated agent inboxes. First-party SDKs support Node.js, TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, PHP, and Ruby; listed framework integrations include Next.js, Django, Ruby on Rails, and Laravel. Analytics cover delivery, opens, clicks, bounces, complaints, SMTP responses, and reputation. Templates support AI-assisted generation, editing, previews, variables, and version history. Hosted plans retain data for 45 days and set limits for inboxes, webhooks, and custom domains. The Free plan allows 3,000 emails per month and 100 per day; sending pauses when either cap is reached. Pro costs $10 a month for 50,000 emails per month, with overage at $0.50 per 1,000 emails. Self-hosting has no Reloop license cost, though server and delivery costs still apply. Reloop is open source under Apache 2.0 with Reloop Labs use restrictions.
