    Open-source project nxnative can convert Switch games into native iPhone and Mac apps

    The open-source project nxnative can convert users' own Switch games into native apps for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with the games' original code running directly on Apple chips without going through an emulator. Its GitHub page already lists more than 60 tested games, including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Metroid Dread, and Super Mario Odyssey; some games, with specific updates, can go from 30 fps to 60 fps. Using it requires providing your own game files and decryption keys extracted from your own console, and running build scripts on a Mac with Xcode installed; the finished product must be sideloaded via tools such as AltStore or Sideloadly, and it only supports iPhone 15 Pro and newer models or iPads with M1 and newer chips, with the system requiring iOS 26 or iPadOS 26, and it does not support amiibo or online multiplayer.

    ESP-SDR open-source firmware turns the ESP32 into a software-defined radio

    The team of Florian Euchner at the Institute of Communications and Navigation of the University of Stuttgart has released the open-source firmware ESP-SDR, which uses an undocumented path in Espressif's test library librftest to let ordinary ESP32 boards receive raw 2.4 GHz RF signals without additional hardware. It supports the classic ESP32, S3, C6 and the C5, which can cover 5 GHz, but due to USB bandwidth limits most models can only take short snapshots, making them better suited as spectrum analyzers and unable to replace the roughly 30-euro RTL-SDR receiver dongle. The firmware is released on GitHub under the GPLv3 or later license and offers a browser installer and the ESP-WebSDR web interface; the team deliberately does not provide transmit functionality.

    ProjectDiscovery Adds Neo Triage Vulnerability Exploitability Validation to Neo Platform

    Open-source security company ProjectDiscovery has added Neo Triage to its Neo security testing platform. It can reproduce each report against the actual asset where the vulnerability resides in an isolated sandbox, and issue conclusions such as valid, duplicate, or junk, while attaching test traffic as evidence. The feature targets the vulnerability backlog caused by AI scanning and code review. The company says manual reproduction of a single item takes 15 minutes to 4 hours, and manually processing a backlog of 100,000 items would take about 50,000 hours, while reviewing Neo verdicts takes about 8,300 hours. Neo Triage is now available to all Neo plans, including the free version.

    Microsoft Teams will add AI anti-phishing and fraud protection features

    Microsoft will add AI security features to Teams that analyze conversation content to identify phishing, scams, and identity theft, with a focus on new contacts. The feature no longer only checks malicious links and files, but instead identifies suspicious behavior in messages; Microsoft says messages will not be stored or used to train models, nor used for monitoring or advertising. The feature will begin rolling out in early November 2026 and is expected to be fully available in the first half of December; IT teams will not need to configure anything, as it will be enabled automatically.

    Canva Releases Its Own AI Image Model Canva Craft, Launched Globally for Designers

    Canva has released its first self-developed AI image model, Canva Craft, now available globally to all Canva users and focused on designer scenarios. The model uses a two-stage architecture and, combined with Canva's prompting tools, can plan the layout before generation; its training data comes from Canva's asset library, licensed and public databases, and user data from those who opted in to training. On the DesignArena image model leaderboard, Canva Craft ranks fourth, behind only OpenAI's ChatGPT Images and ahead of Google's Nano Banana and Microsoft's MAI-Image.

    AWS and Google Cloud Open-Source Trainium and TPU-Adapted Versions of PyTorch…

    At PyTorch Conference 2026, AWS and Google Cloud successively open-sourced their respective PyTorch backends for their AI chips: TorchNeuron for AWS Trainium and TorchTPU for Google Cloud TPU. Both were previously available only to select users in private testing. AWS says TorchNeuron requires only switching to .to('neuron') to run, while maintaining compatibility with eager execution, torch.compile, and standard PyTorch APIs; Google Cloud says TorchTPU supports out-of-the-box model execution and TPU migration. Both aim to lower the porting barrier for running PyTorch outside of NVIDIA CUDA.

    Replit Launches Replit for Business, Proposing a Blueprint for the Self-Driving Company

    Replit has released Replit for Business, offering enterprises a foundation that lets agents use company knowledge and systems within controlled boundaries, with the goal of helping enterprises transform into self-driving companies. Replit says that in the first half of 2026 its engineers' code output nearly tripled, while review time, rollbacks, and product incidents remained flat. Customer SMFL says a development process that originally required 6 people and 6 months was completed by 1 person in 1 week, and full lifecycle costs dropped from about 3 billion yen to under 1 billion yen.

    Graphify Open-Source Tool: Building a Persistent Knowledge Graph for the Entire Repository for Coding Agents to Query

    The Graphify open-source project proposes first building a persistent knowledge graph for the entire code repository, then letting coding agents query the graph to modify code, rather than re-running grep and reading files on every task round. It performs local tree-sitter AST parsing on the code, labels edges as EXTRACTED or INFERRED, and outputs artifacts to graph.json, graph.html, and GRAPH_REPORT.md under graphify-out/, after which query, path, and explain can be used for querying. The author points out that whether marketing figures such as a stable 80% cost reduction can be achieved depends on repository size, whether the graph stays fresh, and whether the agent actually connects to graph queries; connection methods include registering a skill via graphify install, or mounting graph.json into Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex via graphify-mcp.
