Submit a repo
Suggestions go to the issue tracker, prefilled with the questions a reviewer will ask. There is no form on this site because there is no backend behind it — and an issue is public, discussable, and harder to lose.
What gets accepted
- A tool a founder can actually run, self-hosted or embedded in their own product.
- An open-source licence GitHub can resolve to a standard SPDX id.
- Active enough to have been pushed to within the last year.
- A description written by its own maintainers — this catalogue quotes those verbatim and never rewrites them.
What does not
- Awesome-lists, curated link collections, courses, and interview prep.
- Boilerplates, starter templates, and example apps with no function of their own.
- Language SDKs and API wrappers for a third-party service.
- Payments and billing: there is deliberately no category for it, because self-hosting payment processing means inheriting PCI scope.
