    mPDF

    mPDF

    PHP library generating PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML

    mPDF is a PHP library that generates PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. The original author, Ian Back, wrote mPDF to output PDF files ‘on-the-fly’ from his website, handling different languages. It is slower than the original scripts e.g. HTML2FPDF and produces larger files when using Unicode fonts, but support for CSS styles etc. and has been much enhanced. Supports almost all languages including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew), and CJK (Chinese-Japanese-Korean). Nested block-level elements (e.g. P, DIV) including margins, borders, padding, line height, background colors, etc. Right-to-left languages are supported, with automatic detection of RTL characters within a document. Transposes tables, lists, text justification, and table cell alignment, as well as a full-text reversal for RTL characters. Automatically detects non-RTL characters and displays these in the original order.

    Twemoji

    Twemoji

    Simple library that provides standard Unicode emoji for all platforms

    Twitter’s open source emoji has you covered for all your project's emoji needs. With support for the latest Unicode emoji specification, featuring 3,245 emojis, and all for free. As an open source project, attribution is critical from a legal, practical and motivational perspective in our opinion. The graphics are licensed under the CC-BY 4.0 which has a pretty good guide on best practices for attribution. Although there are two kinds of parsing supported by this utility, we recommend you use DOM parsing, explained below. Each type of parsing accepts a callback to generate an image source or an options object with parsing info. The second kind of parsing is string parsing. This is unrecommended because this method does not sanitize the string or otherwise prevent malicious code from being executed; such sanitization is out of scope.

JsonCpp is a C++ library that allows manipulating JSON values, including serialization and deserialization to and from strings. It can also preserve existing comment in unserialization/serialization steps, making it a convenient format to store user input files. The branch 00.11.zis a new branch, its major version number 00 is to show that it is different from 0.y.z and 1.y.z, the main purpose of this branch is to make a balance between the other two branches. Thus, users can use some new features in this new branch that introduced in 1.y.z, but can hardly applied into 0.y.z. You can download and install JsonCpp using the vcpkg dependency manager. The JsonCpp port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors.

    XLSX

    XLSX

    Go (golang) library for reading and writing XLSX files

    xlsx is a library to simplify reading and writing the XML format used by recent version of Microsoft Excel in Go programs. Version 3.0.0 introduces some more breaking changes in the API. All methods that can return an `xlsx.File` struct now accept zero, one or many `xlsx.FileOption` functions as their final arguments. These can be used to modify the behavior of the resultant struct, in particular they replace the `…WithRowLimit` variants of those methods with the result of calling `xlsx.RowLimit` and they add the ability to define a custom backing store for the spreadsheet data to be held in whilst processing. The full API docs can be viewed using go’s built in documentation tool.

    ArduinoJson

    ArduinoJson

    JSON library for Arduino and embedded C++. Simple and efficient

    ArduinoJson is a C++ JSON library for Arduino and IoT (Internet Of Things). ArduinoJson has a simple and intuitive syntax to handle objects and arrays. ArduinoJson supports both JSON serialization and deserialization. ArduinoJson uses a fixed memory allocation, allowing to work on devices with very little RAM. ArduinoJson can filter large inputs to keep only fields that are relevant to your application, thereby saving a lot of memory. ArduinoJson can parse directly from an input Stream or std::istream. ArduinoJson can produce compact or prettified documents. ArduinoJson works directly with strings stored in program memory. ArduinoJson supports two coding styles, with implicit or explicit casts. ArduinoJson deduplicates strings in the JSON document. When you have several identical keys or values, the JsonDocument only stores one of each. In practice, this feature reduces memory consumption by 20-30%.

    jsoup

    jsoup

    Java library for working with real-world HTML

    jsoup is a Java library for working with real-world HTML. It provides a very convenient API for fetching URLs and extracting and manipulating data, using the best of HTML5 DOM methods and CSS selectors. jsoup implements the WHATWG HTML5 specification, and parses HTML to the same DOM as modern browsers do. jsoup is designed to deal with all varieties of HTML found in the wild; from pristine and validating, to invalid tag-soup; jsoup will create a sensible parse tree. The parser will make every attempt to create a clean parse from the HTML you provide, regardless of whether the HTML is well-formed or not. You have HTML in a Java String, and you want to parse that HTML to get at its contents, or to make sure it's well formed, or to modify it. The String may have come from user input, a file, or from the web.

    IRremoteESP8266

    Infrared remote library for ESP8266/ESP32

    Infrared remote library for ESP8266/ESP32. Send and receive infrared signals with multiple protocols. This library enables you to send and receive infra-red signals on an ESP8266 or an ESP32 using the Arduino framework using common 940nm IR LEDs and common IR receiver modules. e.g. TSOP{17,22,24,36,38,44,48} demodulators etc. Usage of the library has been slightly changed in v2.0. You will need to change your usage to work with v2.0 and beyond. You can read more about the changes required on our Upgrade to v2.0 page. The library has changed from using constants declared as #define to const with the appropriate naming per the C++ style guide. This may potentially cause old programs to not compile. The most likely externally used #defines have been aliased for limited backward compatibility for projects using the old style. Going forward, only the new constant name style will be supported for new protocol additions.

    SimpleXlsxWriter

    C++ library for creating XLSX files for MS Excel 2007 and above.

    This library represents XLSX files writer for Microsoft Excel 2007 and above. The main feature of this library is that it uses C++ standard file streams. On the one hand it results in almost unnoticeable memory and CPU resources consumption while processing (that may be very useful at saving a large data arrays), but on the other hand it makes unfeasible to edit data that were written. Hence, if using this library the structure of the future report should be known enough. The library is written in C++ with using STL functionality and based on the ZIP library (included), which has a free license: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/7530/Zip-Utils-clean-elegant-simple-C-Win32 This library is distributed under the terms of the zlib license: http://www.zlib.net/zlib_license.html
