About Open Source
Open Source is the shelf for debuts whose code can be read, run and changed by anyone. Each card here points to a product or business built in the open, with the licence and the repository usually a click away from the profile.
The shelf is split into four drawers. Open source apps are finished programs for end users. Developer libraries are building blocks for other people's code. Self-hosted tools run on your own server. Open source AI covers models and the tooling around them. Pick the drawer closest to how you would actually use the thing.
Listings appear newest first, so the latest debuts sit at the front of the drawer. You can sort by community votes instead, and filter by subcategory. Browsing the whole category also shows everything filed in its subcategories, which suits anyone cataloguing the field before narrowing down.

Open Source: questions answered
- What belongs in the Open Source category?
- Products and businesses where the source code is published and can be inspected or reused. That includes apps, libraries, self-hosted software and AI projects. A closed product that merely offers an integration or a public API is better filed in its own field.
- How do I choose between the four subcategories?
- Ask who uses it and where it runs. Finished programs for end users go in apps, code that developers import goes in libraries, software you install on your own server goes in self-hosted tools, and models or their tooling go in open source AI.
- How do I get my open source project listed here?
- Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from that site, and you check and edit every field before anything goes live. Your listing gets one main category, included free. A paid upgrade adds more.
- Can I list in more than one subcategory?
- Every listing has exactly one main category, chosen at submission and included free. If your project straddles two drawers, such as a self-hosted AI tool, a paid upgrade adds up to 3 more categories for $5.
- What should I check when comparing open source options?
- Read the licence terms, see how recently the code was updated, and look at how clearly the documentation explains installation. Check who maintains the project and whether you could realistically run or fix it yourself if the founder moved on.
