This product was not featured by Product Hunt yet. It will not be visible on their landing page and won't be ranked (cannot win product of the day regardless of upvotes).
Explore over 1,284 open-source tools organized into 41 different categories. Filter by language, license type, platform, and even country of origin. Created since other websites either had a poor UI with thousands of tools or a good UI with 500-800 tools but nothing in between. OSS Discovery has both! Absolutely no paid listings. Absolutely no spam. Only useful open-source tools.

OSS Discovery was created out of frustration. Every time I wanted to discover some open source tools, I’d be redirected to alternativeto.net(with paid tools mixed), Google blogs published in 2019 or lists on GitHub.
Directories with huge library have an ugly UI. Directories with great UI have 500-800 tools max.
There wasn’t any that had it all. So, I created it.
2-3 weeks. By myself. Without any team and funds. Only determination and lack of sleep.
1,284 curated open source tools, 41 categories, 60+ countries. Filterable by programming language, licenses, platforms, and even countries of origins. No paid listings. No spam.
But wait, there’s more – AI-based discovery, stacks and additional categories are on the way.
Feedback would be much appreciated. Which tools are missing? What categories do you think I should cover?
Bit of a wild launch day — OSS Discovery got so much traffic from the dev community before this listing even went live that Vercel and Supabase both hit their free tier limits simultaneously.
Currently migrating to Cloudflare. Site will be fully back up very soon.

Who hunted OSS Discovery?
OSS Discovery was hunted by Ayush Singh. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
