Where projects come from
We combine automated signals with human review so the catalog stays fresh without becoming spam.
- GitHub trending and search for active repositories with meaningful traction.
- Community submissions that surface projects people rely on in production.
- Editorial summaries, comparisons, and visual explainers that make each page scannable.
- A review process that keeps incomplete or low-signal entries out of public search until they are ready.
