Gammapy - analyse gamma-ray astronomy data
The package supports map-based and spectral analysis as well as workflows involving event data, instrument response functions and source models. Higher-level estimators can derive scientific products such as flux points and maps from fitted datasets. Configuration can be performed through Python or YAML-based descriptions, which is useful when constructing reproducible analysis pipelines.
Gammapy integrates closely with the broader scientific Python ecosystem rather than attempting to provide an isolated environment. Its Astropy foundations supply units, coordinates and other astronomical infrastructure, while NumPy and SciPy provide the numerical foundations.

Speech Note - note taking, reading and translating
Speech Note is a Linux desktop application for working with spoken and written material using local speech recognition, speech synthesis and machine translation.
It can turn speech into text, read text aloud and translate text between supported languages while keeping processing on the user’s own computer. Rather than depending on a single recognition or synthesis technology, Speech Note supports a collection of processing engines, allowing users to select models appropriate for their language, hardware and preferred balance between resource use and output quality. Model files are not bundled with the main installation; the application includes a graphical model browser for downloading them when required.

justray – modern VPN client for the terminal
justray is a modern VPN client designed around terminal workflows. It combines an interactive text interface with command-line controls, while a background daemon maintains the active connection.
The software is built around sing-box and supports both individual proxy links and subscription feeds. This gives users a single interface for managing multiple connection types and remote nodes without relying on separate clients for each protocol. It is particularly suited to users who prefer keyboard-driven administration and want both interactive and scriptable control over their VPN configuration.

Video recording can include audio through PipeWire, while display freezing helps users select changing on-screen content.
