Below you will find a few long-term projects that I have worked on in the past decade that I keep here for reference. Many of them are still popular even today and they still work in most environments without too many problems. A compliment to their rich functionality or a result of their specialized nature? Who knows. If you run into issues, submit a ticket to the appropriate github project link and maybe someone will fix it.
