Ce que vous pouvez créer

Beyond the frameworks, the shelf holds two different kinds of agent infrastructure: Awesome AI Tools, a very large curated list of AI tools kept updated for 2026, is the map many builders start from, while RocketMQ-Rust rewrites Apache RocketMQ in Rust as messaging for the AI era. The AI Agents shelf also holds 01 — Talk to your computer — an open-source voice interface.
