✅	Open Badges		Students can earn digital badges issued using the Open Badges format Digital badges are verifiable, portable, and packed with information about skills and achievements
✅	Linux		A family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel 90% of all cloud infrastructure is powered by Linux including supercomputers and cloud providers 74% of smartphones in the world are Linux-based
✅	Wiki		A hypertext publication collaboratively edited and managed by its own audience directly using a web browser Provides students with a wealth of lessons including expertly written and volunteer-contributed content
✅	Shell		Command-line interpreter that provides a command line user interface for Unix-like operating systems such as the Ubuntu-based system currently in use
✅	Git		Git is a distributed version-control system for tracking changes in any set of files
✅	Web Server		A web server is server software that can satisfy client requests on the World Wide Web Students receive a dedicated directory and URL where they can build and test their own web applications
✅	ChatWoot		Provides students with a real-time system to receive support in resolving issues

✅	Merlin Mission Manager	Merlin Mission Manager	An automated, realtime environment for evaluating coding and other challenges
✅	Igis		An open source interactive graphic system for exploring computer-based graphics and applications using Swift
✅	Ada		Ada is a structured, statically typed, imperative, and object-oriented high-level programming language
✅	Assembler		GNU Assembler is used to assemble the GNU operating system and the Linux kernel, and various other software and student projects
✅	C		C is a general-purpose, procedural computer programming language supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope, and recursion, with a static type system
✅	C++		C++ is a general-purpose programming language created as an extension of the C programming language The language has expanded significantly over time, and modern C++ now has object-oriented, generic, and functional features in addition to facilities for low-level memory manipulation
✅	Go		Go is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google
✅	Java		Java is a class-based, object-oriented programming language that is designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible
✅	Lisp		Lisp is a family of programming languages with a distinctive, fully parenthesized prefix notation Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language in widespread use today Lisp was originally created as a practical mathematical notation for computer programs Lisp pioneered many ideas in computer science, including tree data structures, automatic storage management, dynamic typing, conditionals, higher-order functions, recursion, the self-hosting compiler, and the read–eval–print loop
✅	Lua		Lua is a lightweight, high-level, multi-paradigm programming language designed primarily for embedded use in applications
✅	Perl		Perl is a family of two high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages
✅	PHP		PHP is a general-purpose scripting language especially suited to web development
✅	Prolog		Prolog is a logic programming language associated with artificial intelligence and computational linguistics
✅	Python		Python is an interpreted, high-level and general-purpose programming language Python's design philosophy emphasizes code readability with its notable use of significant whitespace Its language constructs and object-oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical code for small and large-scale projects
✅	Swift		Swift is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language developed by Apple Inc. and the open-source community Swift has features addressing some common programming errors like null pointer dereferencing Swift provides syntactic sugar to help avoid some deeply nested constructs Swift supports the concept of protocol extensibility that can be applied to types, structs and classes
✅	Octave		Powerful mathematics-oriented syntax with built-in 2D/3D plotting and visualization tools
✅	SQLite		SQLite implements a small, fast, self-contained, high-reliability, full-featured, SQL database engine SQLite is the most used database engine in the world
✅	LDAP		LDAP, the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, is a mature, flexible, and well supported standards-based mechanism for interacting with directory servers. It’s often used for authentication and storing information about users, groups, and applications.
