    China's first CTFTools framework

    The first CTF tool framework in China. China's first CTFTools framework designed to help CTFer quickly overcome the CTF problem. Use kotlin and java mixed development. This is probably the first tool framework applied to CTF in China. Built-in current mainstream password, includes but is not limited to Virginia password, Caesar password, fence password. Users can write plugs independently, but only support Python to write plugs. The writing method is also extremely simple. (Due to Jython's own reasons, he was temporarily unable to support Python3) When introducing plugs, remember to confirm that the jython file has been loaded. The project has been enhanced. This replacement only retains some of the core codes and reconstructs UI and optimized codes to make this framework support more functions.

    MyBatis

    MyBatis

    MyBatis SQL mapper framework for Java

    MyBatis is a first class persistence framework with support for custom SQL, stored procedures and advanced mappings. MyBatis eliminates almost all of the JDBC code and manual setting of parameters and retrieval of results. MyBatis can use simple XML or Annotations for configuration and map primitives, Map interfaces and Java POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects) to database records. Every MyBatis application centers around an instance of SqlSessionFactory. A SqlSessionFactory instance can be acquired by using the SqlSessionFactoryBuilder. SqlSessionFactoryBuilder can build a SqlSessionFactory instance from an XML configuration file, or from a custom prepared instance of the Configuration class. Building a SqlSessionFactory instance from an XML file is very simple. It is recommended that you use a classpath resource for this configuration, but you could use any InputStream instance, including one created from a literal file path or a file:// URL.

    Netty

    Netty

    An event-driven asynchronous network application framework

    Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven networking framework for the JVM that simplifies building high-performance clients and servers. It wraps Java NIO with a channel/handler pipeline model, enabling clean composition of codecs, TLS, and application logic with minimal overhead. Its ByteBuf abstractions, buffer pooling, and zero-copy techniques help reduce GC pressure and improve throughput under heavy I/O. Support for common protocols—HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, WebSocket, and raw TCP/UDP—makes it a foundation for RPC frameworks, proxies, and messaging systems. Pluggable transports and native integrations (like epoll or kqueue where available) allow fine-tuning for different operating systems. With robust resource management, leak detection, and extensive testing, Netty is widely chosen when low latency, scalability, and control over the I/O stack are required.

    Apache Flink

    Apache Flink

    Stream processing framework with powerful stream

    Apache Flink is a distributed engine for stateful computations over data streams and batches, designed for low-latency processing at scale. Its core runtime executes dataflow graphs with fine-grained backpressure and checkpointing, allowing applications to recover consistently from failures. Flink’s event-time model and watermarks enable accurate out-of-order processing, windowing, and complex time semantics that typical real-time systems struggle with. Developers program against high-level APIs—DataStream and Table/SQL—to express transformations, joins, and stateful patterns, while specialized libraries support CEP, machine learning workflows, and connectors. A rich connector ecosystem integrates with systems like Kafka, Kinesis, filesystems, JDBC sources/sinks, and object stores. Deployments span Kubernetes, YARN, Mesos, and standalone clusters, and operational features such as savepoints, state backends, and metrics make long-running jobs manageable in production.

    ServiceTalk

    ServiceTalk

    A networking framework that evolves with your application

    ServiceTalk is a JVM network application framework with APIs tailored to specific protocols (e.g. HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2.x, etc…​) and supports multiple programming paradigms. ServiceTalk is intended to provide a common and extensible networking abstraction on top of a lower-level networking framework (e.g. Netty). Netty is a great low-level networking framework, but when used for service-to-service communication it presents a few opportunities for improvement. Fully asynchronous and requires knowledge of EventLoop threading model. Executing CPU-intensive or "blocking" code requires manual thread hops. Subtle out-of-order execution of tasks when code executes both on and off the EventLoop thread. APIs are not tailored towards common application use cases (e.g. request/response, RPC, etc..) The asynchronous programming paradigm presents a barrier to entry in scenarios where vertical scalability is not a primary concern.
