## [Not Paid](https://github.com/kleampa/not-paid)
Did your client forget to pay? Fade out the website each day they don’t pay until it completely disappears! Pro Tip: Mix it with the code, minify, and obfuscate for greater effect. _*winks_

## [x0](https://compositor.io/x0/)
x0 is a tool that allows you to create documentation for your React components. Think of it as an alternative to StoryBook. One of the most interesting features it has is the _LiveEditor_, allowing you to play around with the components in a live environment and being able to see a preview of the change immediately.

## [Brisk](https://github.com/briskml/brisk)
Brisk allows you to use ReasonML/OCaml to create native UIs. It’s still a work in progress but it’s exciting to see how it’s gonna end up, especially since it’s using Reason.

## [@pika/pack](https://www.pikapkg.com/blog/introducing-pika-pack/)
This tool is one that I am personally very excited to try out. @pika/pack is a CLI tool that allows you to simplify the process of packing and deploying an npm package. @pika/pack lets you create a pipeline of the common processes you do with a library such as compiling to ES5, uglification and the like, using plugins with sensible defaults. Once you’ve setup your pipeline, just run `pack build && pack publish` and you are done!
