phpFastCache is a caching system for PHP. It’s made for reducing the database load on websites with a lot of traffic.
For example, if your website is visited by 10,000 people who ask for the same query, phpFastCache can generate a single query and serve all of the visitors.
It’s a simple and powerful way to increase the performance of your website.
jQuery has gotten richer in features throughout the years — but it’s also gotten bigger and can contain many features a developer won’t want to use.
jQuery Builder helps making a custom build of jQuery, allowing developers to choose which modules to include or not.
The builder is also available for the Node.js command line tool. This is a very nice way of reducing the load time for your websites.
Bootstrap Magic is a theme generator for Bootstrap. It has a live preview which updates in real-time.
Bootstrap Magic supports LESS and all of its functions. The output is a minified (or not) CSS file which you can use for your very own hand-built Bootstrap design.

Helios is an extensible back-end framework for iOS devices.
Helios is rich in features:
It’s easy to integrate in existing Ruby or Sinatra applications. Helios also stands out with an extensive documentation, so do bookmark the framework if you’re planning to create something iOS-y in the future.
Markup is a framework for designing websites easily.
It has a plethora of useful tools — layouts, widgets, typography styles, etc. — to use as a starting point for your very own design.
Markup adheres to the latest HTML5/CSS3 standards and is search-engine friendly. Its layouts are responsive and the framework itself is fully documented.
While you might be tempted to stick to your old guns — jQuery UI components probably — Markup actually looks quite powerful and might be a refreshing change at least.
