The FOSS Place

An app store for FOSS apps.

🌍 The FOSS Place

The FOSS Place is a free and open-source app store designed to showcase the best of FOSS software in one simple, accessible hub.
No ads, no tracking β€” just community-curated open-source apps.

This a work-in-progress.

✨ Why The FOSS Place?

Open-source apps are everywhere, but they're often scattered across different sites and repositories.
The FOSS Place brings them together in one lightweight catalog, making it easier to:

  • πŸ”Ž Discover new FOSS projects
  • πŸ“š Learn about their features and licenses
  • 🌐 Access official download links and repositories
  • 🀝 Contribute by adding your favorite apps

πŸ› οΈ Features

  • Minimalist design β€” built with plain HTML + CSS for speed and accessibility
  • Organized categories β€” Media, Productivity, Utilities, Development, and more
  • Community-driven β€” anyone can add or improve app listings
  • Open-source ethos β€” every app listed is free and open source
