In their own words

Ocelot

Ocelot is a free, MIT-licensed.NET API gateway for microservices that need a unified entry point. It handles HTTP and HTTPS services on platforms supported by ASP.NET Core and supports WebSocket and secure WebSocket connections. Developers install it as a NuGet package in an ASP.NET Core project, configure static or dynamic routes, and deploy the result as a self-hosted ASP.NET Core application. Gateway capabilities include caching, request aggregation, authentication, load balancing, rate limiting, logging, and request and response transformations. Documented service discovery providers include Consul, Kubernetes, Eureka, and Azure Service Fabric. Routes can use registered ASP.NET Core authentication schemes, including JWT bearer tokens, and restrict access by scopes. Documentation includes Auth0, Okta, and IdentityServer bearer-token examples. Ocelot targets.NET 8,.NET 9, and.NET 10. The listed plan costs nothing. Ocelot does not directly support GraphQL and points developers to GraphQL for.NET for integration. The repository reports no SECURITY.md file and no published security advisories.

oxGBC

oxGBC is a free Rust emulator for Game Boy and Game Boy Color. One portable emulation core supports Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and browsers through WebAssembly. The project aims for high accuracy using sub-instruction CPU timing and dot-level PPU emulation, and is validated in CI against community test suites including Blargg, Mooneye, SameSuite, DMG-acid2, CGB-acid2, CGB-acid-hell, and Magen.

Gameplay options include multiple save-state slots, optional automatic save and restore, configurable rewind, and adjustable speed with Slow and Turbo modes. Keyboard and gamepad controls are rebindable, including button combinations. Video options include visual filters, LCD frame blending, built-in or user-defined palettes, and custom GLSL shaders through an optional OpenGL backend. The desktop interface has a file browser and scans ROM directories. Listed cartridge support includes MBC0, MBC1, MBC1M, MBC2, MBC3, and MBC5, including battery-backed MBC3 real-time clock and SRAM. The project is licensed under GNU GPL version 3.0. On macOS, Gatekeeper blocks the first launch until the app is opened manually through security settings or its quarantine is cleared.
