One tool that seems to meet your requirements is Zotero. I recommend it highly. In particular, I've had good experience with it across multiple platforms and web browsers, including Ubuntu with Chrome and Firefox.
Zotero lets you organize your collection of papers into folders and can store the same item in multiple folders (collections in Zotero ...

macOS has a built-in application called Digital Colour Meter. It's installed by default, in the /Applications/Utilties folder:
Here is me using it to find out the background color for Software Recommendations' menu bar, which is RGB(23, 77, 96):
As @Tetsujin notes in the comments, via the menu View → Display Values you can change the output to ...

You can use a Markdown editor such as Typora. Typora supports exporting to PDF, and for other formats such as docx or EPUB, you can use Pandoc. See https://www.markdownguide.org/cheat-sheet/ if you need a primer on Markdown syntax.
Typora is currently in beta and is free during beta, but will presumably not be free after a stable release comes out. Another ...

At my company we had VPN access through macOS Server, and we could follow the steps below to get it operational on Mojave. (NOTE: This response is copy-pasted from another thread I created).
These instructions are largely the same as the ones in the official PDF-file that goes through the migration progress, but with the (hopefully) helpful addition that ...

The magic word is traceroute, so you are looking for a visual traceroute.
Since you don’t tell us which operating system you use, or whether you want to pay for it or not (please read [ask] and tell us this sort of thing in future; the more information you give us, the more we can help you), I guess at the most common answers : Windows and gratis.

As far as I know, there isn't any special download for virtual machines.
However, this doesn't really matter if you specifically want a legal option, because you couldn't legally run it on your laptop anyway unless the hardware is made by Apple, as there is an explicit clause in the licensing for macOS that requires that it only be run on Apple hardware (...

I know this is question is a little old but I thought I'd respond in case someone else stumbles over this.
I have a simple little app (Mounting Yard - https://github.com/dagronf/MountingYard) which can mount smb drives via NetFSMountURLAsync in Swift. Unfortunately as you've mentioned the online documentation is almost non-existent and I've had to cobble ...

The first step is to check the drive to determine if it has issues that are causing this behavior. Here is a link to WD Drive Utilities for Mac.
If the software reports that everything is okay, then you could do a search for "alternatives to wiztree for mac". There are many options there. These programs catalog all the files on a drive and create a ...

This is supported by the standard Screen Sharing feature of macOS, according to this answer on Ask Different:
macOS Sierra still supports multiple simultaneous connected users. In the example below Sierra is running in a VM and admin is logged in. user is a remote screen sharing session from the VM host machine (10.9.5) – an iMac – and root is a remote ...

Applications with vaguely similar features, without any prediction as to whether they will run on macOS 10.15. Some may have to be combined, few are free, homebrewed solutions (with folders and scripts) excluded:

The Dock was great when it was released in 2001. Today, you need more power and more functionality. ...

Two highly rated dock replacement apps, which are most similar to the Dock, are Tab Launcher and Active Dock. Active Doc is free while Tab Launcher is $4. There is a Tab Launcher Lite version that is free.
There is an app Launchpad Manager that will alphabetize the apps for display on the Launchpad. You must get the Pro version which does many things and ...

There are 2 free packages that claim to do what you want. One is WavePad by NCH software and the other is GarageBand by Apple.
The review for Waverpad starts with the following statement. "As my mom used to say, easy peasy pumpkin pie. That’s pretty much WavePad in a nutshell." That sure sounds inviting and since its free it should be worth a try.

Well, a very simple way to do this would be to copy data to a spreadsheet program. Numbers, Excel, and Google Sheets are three I am familiar with. These have the capability to make x-y scatter plots. Be sure to use scatter plot to be able to easily zoom scales. Load the data (paste) into two columns of a spreadsheet page. Then use the x-y scatter plot option ...

If you use the screen capture feature command-shift-4 the cursor is turned into cross-hairs and displays the coordinates of the screen. So moving the cursor to the top left corner yields 0-0. You can move the cursor wherever you want and determine distances by a calculating what you want.

Turns out, ffmpeg can handle this too! In particular, I found this page: https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#eq.
Using the eq filter, one can modify contract, brightness, saturation, gamma, r, g, b, and more.

Beside KMP I've also used Media Player Classic with ffdshow filter, which are both included in the K-lite codec pack. No other filters are needed
ffdshow can be configured to display subtitles, to enable or disable various built-in codecs, to grab screenshots, to enable keyboard control, and to enhance movies with increased resolution, sharpness, and many ...

According to this list, multiple subtitles are supported by the following players:

PotPlayer is from the same developer that’s responsible for creating KMPlayer who decided to leave that project and start another. Unsurprisingly PotPlayer also has a range of subtitle options like KMPlayer, including a subtitles browser and plenty of ...

A popular code editor is Visual Studio Code. It is a free offering from the vomit company (I hate them too but VScode is a very nice app). There are 100's of extensions for many different programming languages and other mods to VScode. Don't confuse Visual Studio Code with Visual Studio.
An inexpensive app that I use occasionally is Pages. Its Macs ...

MacOS Server removed the configuration GUI for the VPN server, but the underlying VPN server is still there. There's a product called iVPN that restores the GUI. I'm using iVPN version 7.4.3 on Mojave and it works fine. You can also manually configure and control the underlying VPN server (using Terminal and a text editor), but I find the convenience of ...

I've successfully installed strongSwan via Homebrew and got it working to provide an IKEv2 VPN server connectable by other Macs using their native VPN client.
Unfortunately the setup isn't particularly trivial as it does require a bit of command line knowledge, but it wasn't too bad: I based the setup on the instructions for setting up strongSwan in Ubuntu ...

OpenVPN is it's own VPN protocol and thus requires a specific client software. For MacOS clients that's Tunnelblick.
A related issue with all of the above mentioned options is integration of user authentication. I believe they all require a separate RADIUS server software for authentication (e.g. FreeRADIUS) against Open Directory.

The program I found that solves this issue at least in part is Monosnap. It has a function under Preferences -> Hotkeys called "Capture previous area", which, when used, takes the same snapshot of the first defined region as was captured via "Capture area":
All of these images are then saved to Monosnap under the Pictures folder if you have that option ...
