General conditions

This is an attempt to make a curated list of high-quality, maintained, useful NGO softwares and services.

  • Submitting software/service:
    • Must either be free and open source, or have a note which explicitly states that the software is commercial. (Commercial Software) will do. Must have an acknowledged open source license to be exempt from the (Commercial Software) note requirement.
    • Software/service must not be abandoned/discontinued.
    • Do not include links to documentation. This is not an "awesome library" repository. We might go for that in the future.
  • If e-book, must be free (as in free beer) and without commitment from the user (e.g. no requirement to enter personal details, no requirement to login with social network ID, etc.)
  • Likewise, all other resources (websites etc.), must all be open to all and must not require payment nor registration/credentials.
    • The only exception being Newsletters, where an email address is required by definition. Newsletters are accepted under the condition that an email address is their only requirement.
  • This is not the place for slides, videos, specific blog posts, specific SQL queries. Will possibly open a dedicated list for these.
  • Avoid politics and religious wars.

Request guidelines

  • Make an individual pull request for each suggestion
  • Use the following format: [item](link) - description.
  • Each item should be limited to one link
  • Include a link to the item in the description of your pull request
  • The link should be the name of the package/project/library/resource etc.
  • Avoid superlatives or FUD and otherwise just stick to a reasonable description
  • Do not capitalize description (i.e. avoid "The Tool to End All Tools")
  • English only
