Ratarmount 1.0.0 – Rapid access to large archives via a FUSE filesystem▲76
Hi HN, Since my first posted introduction of ratarmount [0], 2 years have gone by and many features have been added. To summarize, ratarmount enables working with archived contents exposed as a filesystem without the data having to be extracted to disk: pip install ratarmount ratarmount archive.tar mounted ls -la mounted I started this project after noticing the slowness of archivemount with large TAR files and wondering how this could be because the file contents exist at some offset in the archive file and it should not be difficult to read that data. Turns out, that part was not…

Libmui is a macOS Classic widget lib for Linux▲300
Not sure if I would post this for the last day of #marchintosh OR wait for tomorrow the 1st of April. Both apply equally. Anyway, here's a pet project of mine, I made it as a glued on for another pet project of mine, but it developed a life of it's own now and can soar skyward toward success, fame, and glory.

Parqeye – A CLI tool to visualize and inspect Parquet files▲167
I built a Rust-based CLI/terminal UI for inspecting Parquet files—data, metadata, and row-group-level structure—right from the terminal. If someone sent me a Parquet file, I used to open DuckDB or Polars just to see what was inside. Now I can do it with one command. Repo: https://github.com/kaushiksrini/parqeye

Pano, a bookmarking tool built around shareable shelves▲37
i built pano because i kept losing the things i actually wanted to come back to. pano is an internet archiving tool that lets you save links into shelves that you can organize and share. the problem for me was never finding things. it was keeping them. research papers, recipes, old blog posts, repos, tutorials, and random sites i found late at night would end up scattered across tabs, bookmarks, screenshots, saved posts, and pdfs. a few weeks later, they were effectively gone. what i wanted was one place where saved links stayed organized, easy to navigate, and easy to share as a collection.…
