repos.best is a curated directory of the best open-source software on GitHub. Every listing is a real repository, enriched with live stars, primary language and license data, screenshots, and a written overview — and mapped to the proprietary tools it can replace. It's your first stop when you're looking for an open-source alternative to something you already use, or just want to discover high-quality projects worth your time.
We keep repository metadata fresh, track GitHub stars across the whole catalog, and organize everything by category, tech stack, license, and “alternative to X”. Maintainers can submit their project for a free listing — and adding our badge earns a verified listing and a faster review.
repos.best is built and maintained by Ege Beşe. Have a suggestion or spotted something to fix? Get in touch.
