 > The list is currently edited directly from the readme, however my goal for the 1.0 release is for all open-source projects to be under a ```list.json``` file with scripts that automatically generate the readme. This would automate organization and make re-ordering far easier whilst enabling API retrieval of repository stats for always up to date star counts and descriptions. Consult the [roadmap](ROADMAP.md) for further information regarding development.
