Why this exists

Most open-source app discovery is fragmented.

GitHub search shows repositories, not always usable products. Awesome lists are helpful, but they tend to become long static README files. This project focuses on real applications: projects with source code, product context, stack information, activity signals, and enough structure to help developers learn, compare, and contribute.

  • Real apps

    Not SDKs, templates, or tiny demos. Focused on complete applications you can actually run.

  • Codebase context

    Stack, platform, license, activity, maturity, and contribution signals — one card per app.

  • Searchable discovery

    Browse by category, stack, platform, stars, recency, and status — not a flat README list.
