A large and growing repository of Max 5/6 abstractions, javascripts, shaders, etc I've made and found useful over the years. Some will be generically useful to people, others are esoteric or specific to the way I use max. Some are well documented, others are not so much. I hope some of these will be useful to people.

a number of dict abstractions that make it easy to use dictionaries to manage the state of a patch (get items, set item, create subdicts, dict item based gate, etc)

use LEDs on KMI QuNeo pads as audio meters

a standard audio output bpatcher for patches

javascripts for converting between hex, binary and int

a javascript that quantizes to musical scales

Apple multitouch trackpad input conditioning - tries to map finger data intelligently to one parameter per finger

td.rota shader with offset values absolute rather than relative to rotation

an example multitrack recorder bpatcher for all channels of a MOTU Ultralite

javascripts to scroll within a patch or send a patch window to the back

check if a file exists anywhere in max's searchpath

return the path of the current patch so saved files dont go willy-nilly to the last place used in Max's searchpath

bpatchers for managing preset slots and JSON files for pattrstorage

Err0r_500

Another little tool : as it usually happens in music with live electronics, the list of "cues" maybe be very long and may need to be modified during the compositional process. The goal of this tool is to use a dict object to be able to edit easily a potentially very long and complex list of messages.

To send a message you simply have to write the destination and the message value in the dict, you just have to enclose several messages in an array to send them at the same time.

Here's how a cue list would look like (without the comments) :
{
	"1" : "receiver1 11", //first cue, sends one message
	"1a" : [ "receiver1 111", "receiver2 112", "receiver3 0" ], //cue added afterwards, sends 3 messages at the same time
	"2" : [ "receiver1 12", "receiver2 22" ] //second cue send 2 messages
}
