It’s back! We’re here to bring you the latest and greatest releases for September 2020. These are exciting new releases from some of the coolest projects around. There’s everything from world-changing tech, to weekend hobbies. The best part about these releases, is they are all you. These are projects shipped by amazing developers from the open source community. Whilst there’s lots of projects shipped every month, we don’t have enough blog space for them all. So we selected a handful of awesome ones. Grab a cuppa, maybe some popcorn, and read up on our top ten picks.

Rich 5.0

Get ready for the Python library for rich text. Rich provides beautiful formatting in the terminal and it looks really pretty. With version 5.0, there’s some cool changes made to the markup. Syntax now markups up correctly for strings and tags, and color numbers syntax are understood a lot better. There’s also new support for double brackets. Rich works with Linux, OSX, and Windows. It’s emoji and true color works with the new Windows Terminal. All you need to get Rich working is Python 3.6.1 or later. What are you waiting for? Make your code pretty today.

htop 3.0

The popular, cross-platform interactive process viewer now has a version 3. htop is a command line application and this new release includes some neat additions. There’s now pressure stall information for Linux. Version 3.0 also comes with ZFS ARC stats, lots of features and a few pesky bug fixes. The CI has some improvements and there’s new display options. If you’re keen to read up on every detail, check out the htop ChangeLog.
