Maak: The infinitely extensible command runner, control plane and project automator à la Make (written in Guile Scheme - Lisp)

https://codeberg.org/jjba23/maak

Free yourself of repetitive, lacking, weird and arcane Makefile. After some weeks working on this project, I am upstreaming it to Guix so soon you all can enjoy.

https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/2132

Also, see here an advanced example of a Maak file: https://codeberg.org/jjba23/sss/src/branch/trunk/maak.scm

With the full power of Scheme (Guile) directly in your command runner/control plane, easily define functions, data, lists, loop through them, macros, etc.

Maak has as core mission being your control center or command plane, and act as a command runner, not necessarily a build system, so it avoids much of Make's complexity. No need for .PHONY recipes here.

Maak replaces the arcane syntax of Make with the power and elegance of a full-featured programming language: GNU Guile Scheme λ.

Instead of learning a limited DSL, you can leverage your existing Lisp skills to define tasks, manage data, and automate your workflows with ease. Define functions, manipulate lists, use conditional, create macros—the entire language is at your disposal.

You can also easily call external shell commands and integrate with your existing scripts and tools.

We are excited to announce the release of Vulnerability-Lookup 2.15.0!
This version brings new features, performance improvements, and several bug fixes.

What's New

Detecting vulnerabilities known only through sightings

The dashboard now highlights vulnerabilities discovered via our sighting tools, including scraping social networks, MISP, Nuclei templates, Shadowserver, Gist, and more. This gives you better visibility of unpublished advisories.

Batch user deletion for admins

Admins can now delete multiple users at once using checkboxes and a confirmation modal. CSRF protection is included to ensure safe operations.
