OpenAlternative

Explore Open Source Alternatives to Popular Software

OpenAlternative is a community-driven list of open source alternatives to proprietary software and applications. Our goal is to assist users in finding open source services that can help grow their businesses. We provide a platform for users to discover alternatives and read reviews of products they already use.
The project started as a personal endeavor to learn new technology and create something from scratch. It quickly gained popularity, attracting 100,000 unique visitors in one week and reaching the top spot on Hacker News, highlighting the need for a resource like this.
We invite users to suggest open source alternatives to proprietary software and applications. Users can also contribute to the project by suggesting new categories or improving the website. The project’s source code is available on GitHub.
