About Open Source
Open Source is the category for products whose code is out in the open: anyone can read it, run it and change it. Finished apps, libraries, self-hosted tools and AI models all play on this field. Before you build on anything here, check the licence and the repository on the profile, because that is where the real game is decided.
Listings appear newest first by default, so fresh launches sit at the top of the board. Switch the sort to community votes to see what visitors are backing; votes can never be bought. This page lists everything in the four subcategories below, with filters to narrow the field. Each product has one main category, so founders should pick the subcategory that describes how people actually use it. Treat it like a league table: read the form, then check the match yourself.

Open Source: questions answered
- What belongs in Open Source?
- Products and businesses whose source code is publicly available for others to read, run and modify. That covers end-user apps, code libraries, tools you host yourself and open AI models. If the code is closed, a different category will suit the listing better.
- How do I choose between Open source apps and Self-hosted tools?
- Ask who runs it. If people simply download or open it and use it, it is an app. If the buyer must set it up on their own server and look after it, it is a self-hosted tool. Pick the label that matches the first day of use.
- How do I get an open source project listed?
- Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from that site, then you check and edit every field before anything goes live. A paid launch costs $5; a free listing joins a queue of about 6-8 weeks.
- Can a project sit in more than one subcategory?
- Every listing has exactly one main category, chosen at submission and included free. If your project straddles two areas, such as a library with an AI angle, the paid upgrade at $5 adds more categories so it appears in each.
- What should I compare when choosing an open source product?
- Read the licence first, then look at how recently the project was updated, how clear the documentation is and how easy it is to install. Community votes on this site show what visitors are backing, but they are a signal, not a substitute for testing.
