This project is the .NET Base Class Library, providing the foundational types and APIs required for .NET applications. It serves as a cross-platform runtime library and a standardized managed API framework, acting as the primary set of namespaces for memory management, collections, and asynchronous programming. The library enables the development of enterprise backend infrastructure and the execution of managed code consistently across different operating systems and hardware architectures. It includes capabilities for cross-platform application deployment using self-contained binaries, frame
Supports running long-lived tasks or worker processes in the background as managed services.
WinSW is an executable service wrapper that transforms standard executables into background Windows services. It provides a mechanism to register arbitrary files as system services managed by the Windows operating system, ensuring applications can start automatically on boot and restart following a crash. The project includes a command-line interface for registering, starting, stopping, and monitoring the status of these processes. It handles the translation of Windows Service Control Manager signals into process termination requests for the wrapped executable. The system supports XML-based
Enables older software and command-line tools to be hosted as local background system services on Windows.
This repository is a comprehensive collection of reference implementations and sample libraries for the Universal Windows Platform. It provides practical examples of how to use Windows Runtime APIs to build cross-device applications, including detailed guidance on XAML-based declarative user interfaces and DirectX-integrated rendering. The project distinguishes itself by providing a wide array of hardware integration suites, covering low-level communication with USB, Serial, I2C, SPI, and GPIO peripherals. It includes specialized implementations for mixed reality holographic rendering, advanc
Provides samples for hosting background services that other local or remote applications can connect to for message exchange.
Janus is a WebRTC media gateway that routes real-time audio, video, and data between web browsers and server-side application logic. It functions as a central media relay that manages session negotiation and encryption for multiple browser endpoints. The project utilizes a modular plugin architecture that decouples the core server from specific media logic, allowing developers to implement custom modules for media processing, event handling, and transport protocols. This design enables the server to act as a protocol translation bridge, converting WebRTC streams into legacy formats such as SI
Runs as a background service that starts automatically on system boot.
This project is an end-to-end encrypted communication client designed for secure messaging and identity management using public-key cryptography. It provides a cryptographic identity manager to verify authenticity across platforms and integrates a local messaging daemon to synchronize encrypted data and handle network communication. The system features a remote encrypted file system that mounts encrypted storage as local directories for direct file interaction. It also includes automated identity provisioning for registering and authenticating new devices and automation bots using cryptograph
Operates a persistent local background service to handle asynchronous updates and interface communication.
WinFSP is a framework for implementing custom file systems on Windows. It enables the creation of user-mode file systems that appear as standard disk drives or network shares to the operating system, allowing developers to implement file system logic in user space via a proxy architecture that avoids the need for custom kernel code. A primary differentiator is its FUSE compatibility layer, which maps POSIX-based file system calls to native Windows requests. This allows existing file systems written for the FUSE API to be ported to Windows and Cygwin environments. The project covers a wide ra
Wraps user-mode file systems into local background services for automated lifecycle management.
MCSManager is a game server management panel and multi-node server manager that provides a centralized web interface for deploying, monitoring, and controlling multiple game server instances across distributed physical or virtual machines. It functions as a Docker game server orchestrator, enabling the execution of servers within isolated containers to simplify deployment and environment scaling. The system distinguishes itself through a customizable self-hosted dashboard featuring drag-and-drop layouts and the ability to embed custom HTML and JavaScript components. It provides real-time term
Configures the management panel to start automatically on boot and run as a persistent background service.
This project is a native Windows port of the Redis in-memory key-value store. It provides a high-speed database that maintains datasets in RAM while using periodic snapshots to disk for data persistence. The implementation includes a background system service wrapper, allowing the data store to be installed as a Windows service that starts automatically upon computer boot. It utilizes native Windows compilation to enable execution directly on the host operating system. The system covers in-memory data caching and local data persistence, ensuring that information is recovered after a process
Wraps the data store as a local background service to ensure automatic startup and persistent operation.
