Open source projects to follow (VIII)

Eighth part in this series of posts where I show you some really interesting open source projects I’ve found that deserve a look.

If you develop or contribute to a project and you want to see it in the next post of the series, feel free to contact me on social media or email.

Note: some of these projects might be on a Beta/development state, and may crash or work unexpectedly.

Portable Secret

It’s a tool to encrypt and decrypt messages or files using your web browser encription capabilities. It consists of two HTML files and one Javascript file you can upload to a hosting service (you’ll need to access the tool with HTTPS, or go to the already hosted https://mprimi.github.io/portable-secret/creator/).

Access the tool with your web browser. You can encrypt images, files and messages with a password. The tool will create an embedded HTML file with the file/message encrypted (the encryted file will take twice the size of the original file). To decrypt, just open the file with the web browser and put the password.

Collabora Office for Android

Fulguris

A lightweight and fast Android web browser, based on WebView. Depite being a small app, it has lots of features: custom appearance, ad blocker, reading mode, dark theme, etc. Available on F-Droid.
