Thanks. I don't see a link to the actual license but it looks like it is proprietary licensing, even for the free version so it won't qualify as FLOSS.
 
Some tools for Mac that I enjoy using:

1. Raycast - a great spotlight alternative
2. gfxCardStatus - a way to switch between onboard and discrete gfx on the fly

And a CMS: Twill - a CMS toolkit for Laravel
And the best terminal emulator, iTerm2

Boop (macOS, mac store.. https://github.com/IvanMathy/Boop)
Allows to quickly pretty format pieces from clipboard.. useful for Eg JSON, xml etc you copy off some response to a webservices you developing etc. highly customizable too.

Swift Bar(macOS, home brew.. https://github.com/swiftbar/SwiftBar)
Let’s you define or add all manner of items to tour status/menu bar at the top of the screen.

— Frameworks or libraries

Apache POI (Java, https://poi.apache.org/)
Nothing new.. but every so often I keep coming back to use this. Essentially allows you to programmatically create or manipulate all MS Office documents. If you get suckered into generating reports, invoices etc. you name it.. this is useful to use as it’s a mature library.. wish Python had something similar.

I saw mention of Django and Flask.. but what about
FastAPI (python, https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/). I like the auto documenting /api and openAPI support.
