In this GitHub weekly popular project recommendation, we will introduce to you three unique projects, which show unique charm in the fields of AI and browser interaction, file format conversion, and domestic note-taking software.
This project is like a solid bridge that closely connects AI and browsers, greatly expanding the functional boundaries of browsers. With it, users can easily perform various operations such as opening web pages, reading content, taking screenshots, analyzing data, refining opinions, and downloading resources. Its installation method is very convenient and supports pip
and play right
. When using it, you only need to issue instructions to "Browse You" and configure the corresponding AI model.
The official examples are more eye-catching: you can write a thank-you letter to your dad and save it as a PDF; after reading your resume, you can find a suitable job and submit your resume, and the task is interactive. If you need manual assistance during the process, you can pause the query at any time and perform operations; you can also purchase air tickets on designated websites and set takeoff and landing locations; go to Huofian to search for popular models and save the top 5 models to a file.
The project currently has 8.2K stars. Although the number is not large, it is firmly ranked first on the popular list this week and has a good development trend. In the process of browser AI, this kind of middleware is indispensable, and we look forward to it bringing more interesting cases and gameplay in the future. It is worth mentioning that this is an open source project of Microsoft, which provides technology enthusiasts with a broad space for exploration.
This is a powerful and versatile Markdown conversion tool that can easily convert any file format to Markdown format, such as Pdf, POWERPOINT slides, word, excel, pictures, etc. Extract images based on OCR recognition and convert audio into text content through speech recognition. Even HTML and text data structures such as CSB, JSON and XL are supported. What's even better is that for compressed packages, it can decompress and extract the internal contents in the memory in advance and integrate them into markdown files.
It's very easy to install and use. You can choose to install locally or install using "pip". After the installation is complete, just call the command to use it. It can also be encapsulated into code, extract the markdown conversion interface, and deploy it to the tool website for more people to use. At the same time, the tool supports docker deployment and invocation, which provides great convenience for use in different scenarios. It is a rare Markdown conversion tool.
Siyuan, a domestic note-taking software, has been highly recommended by many people when recommending the blink project. When you open its official GitHub website, you'll find some interesting backstory. The author of Siyuan comes from the B3log organization. The first on the list of contributors is a female programmer, and the second is her husband. The two began working on the creation of Chinese open source software in 2009, initially building community websites and blogs. However, in the process of cooperating with others, some open source projects were later terminated, such as the solo project, in which the author also participated and submitted bugs.
Back to the Siyuan project itself, it prioritizes privacy, supports offline use, and implements end-to-end encrypted synchronization. The software comes pre-configured with rich content components, so there's no apparent fragmentation even when migrating from other platforms. Its Markdown writing habits are smooth and natural, the client is all open source, covering server, core and client source code, and supports simultaneous use of multiple platforms, which is really not easy. The efforts of this husband and wife team have finally come to fruition, and I sincerely wish Siyuan will develop better and better in the future.
The above are the three popular GitHub projects introduced in this issue. I believe they can bring a lot of convenience and new ideas to everyone’s work and study. Everyone is welcome to share your experience in the comment area, and don’t forget to like and share so that more people can discover these excellent projects. See you next time!
