50+ open-source natural language processing modules

Heyho community,

today we are sharing with you a collection of more than 50 open-source and modular natural language enrichers. Let's say you want to implement some product working with multilingual texts - chances are that you can find fitting modules in bricks to implement what you want to do. It's literally code snippets. A library of them. That's bricks :)

We are collecting further modules over time, and will add them to bricks. Also, we hope that devs all around the world will contribute to bricks; it is designed to be incredibly simple to add further modules. If you got an idea, or even an implementation, feel free to just add an issue on GH.

Why are we doing this? For two reasons: 1. We think that this is something simply helpful for devs, e.g. bookmarking bricks if you're working on NLP use cases on a regular basis, so you got a library of hand-crafted modules with documentation. Also, we maintain issues with labels such as "good first issue" or "brainteaser", such that both beginners in NLP and experts can find fun tasks to implement. 2. We already open-sourced our beloved refinery, which is an IDE for natural language processing. Bricks modules can be used directly in refinery, as you can program NLP heuristics in refinery. Naturally, growing bricks will help refinery.

All of bricks is built on the simple idea that we want to bridge the gap between idea and implementation. If you like it, we're super happy to have you join as a contributor or community member (https://discord.com/invite/qf4rG...).

Cheers!
