opensource.fyi opens with 50 open source projects
The index launches with 50 projects, one page each, browsable by category, language and the products each project can replace, with feeds and a JSON API.
opensource.fyi is an index of open source software. Every project gets a single page that answers the same questions in the same order: what it is, how it is licensed, what it replaces and how to start using it.
What is here today
The index opens with 50 projects across 17 categories, from databases to photo libraries. Each one can be reached by category, by programming language, by tag, or from the product it is an alternative to.
For readers and for machines
Everything published here is also available as an RSS feed, a JSON feed and a read-only JSON API, so the index can be followed or reused without scraping.
What comes next
More projects, added continuously, and this news section: releases, briefings and stories from across open source, filed by day.
