As of v0.6.2-beta, the project was fundamentally re-made. Categories and applications were put in categories.json and applications.json, respectively. Python scripts were made to generate one main list and more platform-specific lists. This was paired with GitHub actions to run the scripts when any changes were made. This makes refactoring the list format far easier and eliminates typos.
- The project architecture is as follows: -
-
- definitive-opensource/
- ├── assets/
- ├── readmes/
- ├── resources/
- │ ├── backup/
- │ └── dev/
- ├── source/
- │ ├── components/
- │ ├── data/
- │ ├── scripts/
- | └── utils/
- │ └── testing/
- └── README.md
-
+ This list aims to stand in the middle ground between human input and automation. Fully automated websites exist for finding open source projects, but statistics alone fails to encompass the complete picture. This list has scripts to automate markdown formatting, updating project stats, and finding potentially abandoned projects. However, the actual process of choosing which projects make it onto the list, which ones should be removed, and what tags to assign is controlled entirely by humans.
