The Nevergrad collection of black-box optimization algorithms by @OTeytaud &al. is indeed very impressive. Its wizard, NGopt*, is pretty powerful. Still, a lot remains to be done and understood
*cf paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document…
and Nevergrad’s GitHub for a much improved version
Genetic algorithms, or "evolutionary algorithms" as they are now called are only one class of zeroth-order optimization methods among many.
If you want a quasi-complete collection, have a look at NeverGrad:
