Seq and its associated apps and tooling are made possible by many excellent tools, libraries, and frameworks built by others.

Technology	Language or platform	Notes
.NET Core	.NET	.NET Core is the lightweight, cross-platform runtime on which the Seq server is built. Read more about how we use .NET Core.
Autofac	.NET	Autofac manages the lifetime of components that implement the Seq API, background task system, and other dynamic composition scenarios.
Angular.js	JavaScript	The Seq UI is built from AngularJS components.
babel-polyfill	JavaScript	Babel makes it possible for us to use cutting-edge ECMAScript features while targeting most browsers in current use.
`bincode`	Rust	Compact binary serialization for on-disk metadata files.
`bit-vec`	Rust	Seq's signal indexes use `bit-vec` for logical operations.
`bytes`	Rust	When we wrangle bytes, we wrangle them with this.
`byteorder`	Rust	Used for endian-aware byte encoding throughout Seq's native storage engine.
CodeMirror	JavaScript	The fast and beautiful Seq query syntax highlighting is implemented on CodeMirror.
`failure` and `failure_derive`	Rust	Sane and streamlined Rust error handling.
`fs2`	Rust	Useful for cross-platform file locking APIs.
JSON.NET	.NET	JSON.NET is our go-to JSON parser, used throughout the Seq .NET codebase.
`lazy_static`	Rust	Essential for non-constant static data in Rust programs.
`libc`	Rust	Cross-platform Rust/C standard library bindings.
Lightning.NET	.NET	Lightning.NET is a friendly .NET wrapper for LMDB.
LMDB	Native	LMDB is a fast, flexible, and very reliable key-value store. On Linux, we use LMDB to store Seq's configuration data. On Windows, a (now-deprecated) LMDB storage option was implemented prior to the introduction of Flare Native Storage.
Managed ESENT	.NET	ManagedEsent is a high-quality .NET wrapper for ESENT.
`memmap`	Rust	Cross-platform memory mapped files: we use this throughout Seq's storage engine.
Modern UI Icons		Many of the icons in the Seq user interface are based on, or inspired by, icons from this set.
Moment.js	JavaScript	The essential library for date handling in JavaScript.
murmurhash-net	.NET	`@EventType` is generated by this great implementation of the Murmur3 hash algorithm.
`parking_lot`	Rust	Great alternative synchronization primitives for Rust.
Perfect Scrollbar	JavaScript	We love these neat, compact scrollbars, and use them throughout the Seq UI.
Pikaday	JavaScript	The Seq UI's date pickers are built upon this library.
Plotly.js	JavaScript	We use Plotly.js to generate ad-hoc and dashboard charts.
SemVer	.NET	SemVer helps us parse version numbers from NuGet package feeds
`serde` and `serde_derive`	Rust	Serialization used throughout our Rust codebase.
Serilog	.NET	Seq internally uses Serilog for diagnostics and telemetry. Structured logging FTW ;-)
`snap`	Rust	Seq's native storage engine uses this crate for Snappy compression on Linux and Windows.
Snappy for Windows and CRC-32C for .NET	Native/.NET	On Windows, the ESENT-based storage implementation compresses all data using Snappy compression.
Sprache	.NET	The Seq filter expression language is parsed using Sprache.
Superpower	.NET	SQL-style queries are parsed using Superpower.
Tavis UriTemplates	.NET	The Seq HTTP API uses URI templates throughout, processed using this great library.
Underscore.js	JavaScript	An essential companion in our JavaScript programming.
URI Template JS	JavaScript	On the client-side, URI template interactions are through this handy implementation.
`uuid`	Rust	UUIDs, for Rust.
`winapi`	Rust	Windows API bindings.
