There are many open source projects out there and a lot of them act as alternatives for popular commercial platforms. Regardless of what functionalities they provide, they're powered by people who believe in the open source community and want to work with it to create great products for everyone to use.
What are some open source projects do you guys think developers should give more support too? Or what are just some of your favorites?
I personally have lots of love for Strapi. I know they're popular enough at this point but I still love giving them a shout out when possible 🫶🏻

I think Svelte has a lot of momentum, but doesn't have quite as much support as some of its peers
Svelte is a free and open-source front end compiler created by Rich Harris and maintained by the Svelte core team members. Svelte is not a monolithic JavaScript library imported by applications: instead, Svelte compiles HTML templates to specialized code that manipulates the DOM directly, which may reduce the size of transferred files and give better client performance; application code is also processed by the compiler, inserting calls to automatically recompute data and re-render UI elements when the data they depend on is modified. This also avoids the overhead associated with runtime intermediate representations, such as virtual DOM, unlike traditional frameworks which carry out the bulk of their work at runtime, i.e in the browser. The compiler itself is written in TypeScript. Its source code is licensed under MIT License and hosted on GitHub.
That is very true. I still haven’t gotten into Svelte yet (I’m planning to at some point) but I do see a lot of people talking about it
try it, it's VERY easy and gets stuff done quickly and is very performant, that's my dream framework
svelte.dev has an excellent tutorial about svelte (it's the official site)
if you need a framework for more complex projects (I find svelte best for SPAs) try sveltekit
Cool thanks for the tip!
Came here to write svelte as welL!
Sending some ❤️❤️❤️ to svelte team and contributors
sveltekit needs more traction
The ones that are not owned by for-profit corporations.
We all know there are 2 types of open source projects out there:
Wasmer
Prolog interpreters!
Orbitonjs
Never seen it but it looks pretty cool!
Also just came across it and liked it
HASKELL is Awesome. It come be a leader with a bit more support!
I prefer to use the term "free" instead of "open source", but here are my 5 cents.
I think that Plan9 from user space is a really underrated project. While GNU-coreutils has more programs, they are a bit bloated compared to p9
why? something can be open source and not free, and vice versa, its usage is correct and interchangable here
Lit js (lit.dev) and Appwrite in my opinion.Both are great projects definitely worth trying out.
Frappe framework - frappeframework.com
If you wanna build an application fast which is loaded with features.. Frappe is the way to go.
Benthos. More exposure is the best you can do for it.
