In their own words

Haxelib

Haxelib is the library manager included with Haxe distributions. It connects to a central repository for finding, installing, and sharing Haxe libraries on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with API access. The command line installs the latest release or a specified version, resolves dependencies from HXML files, and supports offline installation. Search matches project names or descriptions, while the info command displays ownership, licensing, descriptions, websites, tags, versions, and release notes. Developers can submit ZIP archives or directories, use Git or Mercurial repositories, and create local repositories from project files. Installed libraries can be exposed to the Haxe compiler with --library or -L. Haxelib can use an HTTP proxy or a custom server. Libraries are distributed as source by default. The public HaxeFoundation repository is MIT licensed, and community links include GitHub, bug reports, Stack Overflow, forums, Discord, and Gitter. All libraries are free.

Skulpt

Skulpt is a free, web-based implementation of Python that executes code entirely in the browser. It requires no preprocessing, plugins, or server-side support. The online editor provides indentation, standard editing shortcuts, and keyboard commands to run all code or only a selection. Developers can embed Skulpt in a webpage or HTML project by loading `skulpt.js` or `skulpt-min.js` together with `skulpt-stdlib.js`, and they can create and host custom modules. The usage guide also describes embedding Trinket examples in an iframe, remixing them, and saving work to a free Trinket account. Skulpt is presented for learning and teaching Python, with a project gallery for educational examples. Its master branch uses Python 3.7.3 grammar, while Python 2 remains available for projects needing it. Documentation says language coverage is incomplete, with some features missing or partial. The runtime may use MIT or PSFLv2 licensing. CLI and API access are listed.
