Functional Libraries

• Functional Fortran - Functional programming for modern Fortran.

Graphics Libraries

Libraries for graphing, graphics, and GUIs

• DISLIN - a high-level graphing and user-interface library.
• f90gl - public domain implementation of the official NIST Fortran 90 bindings for OpenGL.
• F03GL - a Fortran 2003 interface to the OpenGL library, along with the GLU and GLUT toolkits.
• gtk-fortran - a cross-platform library to build Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) using GTK+. Very useful when combined with the Glade RAD tool.
• PGPLOT - cross-platform scientific graphing library.
• VTKFortran - Pure Fortran (2003+) library to write and read data conforming the VTK standard.

Math Libs

Libraries for calculating and other mathematical operations.

• BLAS - application programming interface standard for publishing libraries to perform basic linear algebra operations such as vector and matrix multiplication.
• CERNLIB - The CERN Program Library is a large collection of general purpose libraries and modules maintained and offered in both source and object code form on the CERN central computers
• EISPACK - a software library for numerical computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices, written in FORTRAN
• FGSL - portable, object-based Fortran interface to the GNU scientific library
• IMSL - The IMSL Fortran Numerical Library is the standard for high performance computing commercial mathematics and statistics libraries
• Lis - a Library of Iterative Solvers for Linear Systems
• NAG Fortran Library - Produced by experts for use in a variety of applications, the NAG Fortran Library has a global reputation for its excellence and, with hundreds of fully documented and tested routines, is the largest collection of mathematical and statistical algorithms available
• netCDF - a set of software libraries and self-describing, machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data.
• OpenBLAS - one of the fastest open source BLAS libraries available. Almost as fast as Intel MKL.

JSON Manipulation

Libraries for JSON data manipulating with Fortran language.

• FSON - Fortran 95 JSON Parser.
• json-fortran - A Fortran 2008 JSON API.

XML Manipulation

Libraries for XML data manipulating with Fortran language.

• fox - Fortran XML library
• xml-fortran - an all-Fortran solution for reading and writing XML files.

Date and time manipulation

Libraries for date and time manipulation with Fortran language.

• datetime-fortran - A Fortran 2003 date and time manipulation library, modeled after Python's datetime library.
