Goodbye 2020.
Welcome 2021.

Xiaomi Flashable Firmware Creator V2.1.0
A/B devices support is here

Xiaomi has released Mi 11 with virtual A/B partitions. This is the first device with MIUI interface that uses A/B since it was just limited to Android One devices. So, It became more necessary to add update payload support to our tool.

- Now you can use Xiaomi Flashable Firmware Creator to create firmware packages for Mi 11, Mi A3, Mi A2, and Mi A2 Lite. (Mi A1 is not supported!)
- For now, only firmware packages can be created, I will add fw+vendor packages support soon.

My large list for various open-source stuff (lists, guides. CLI tools, programs, websites, android apps and programming libraries), mostly a more organized copy from my GitHub/GitLab stars.

I have started an open-source project to turn Facebook profiles/pages/groups feeds into RSS because FB is bad but sometimes it has some good stuff to follow.
https://github.com/yshalsager/facebook2rss

It's quite functional now! I have been working on it over last week and I have added some cool stuff.

Features:
- Access Facebook pages and public groups feed without using an account.
- Access Facebook profiles, pages, groups, and notifications when running the API with a Facebook account.
- Your login is automatically saved and refreshed on each API request to keep you signed in.
...

- Facebook posts can be fetched as HTML (default) or text.
- Append Facebook comments of any post RSS feed. (Disabled by default)
- Easily configure the API as you want either using a custom config.env file or by overriding a certain option using uvicorn.
- RSS feeds are cached by default (for 30 minutes) to not abuse Facebook and trigger any anti-automation mechanisms. This can be configured as you want and also can be ignored by using no_cache=1 parameter with any of the API routes.
- Supports using HTTP or SOCKS5 proxies.
- Secure access to the API using your own api_key that can be configured via env file. (Disabled by default)

If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to discuss with me or open an issue. Contributions are welcome too!
