Open Source launches
Open-source launches are judged by the repository as much as the landing page. This category covers tools, libraries and self-hosted apps with public code. Include a licence, a readable README and a working release before you ask anyone to try it.

How we review open source launches
A real product
A working page, clear pricing and a demo that matches the claim. A waitlist with no product is not a launch we can evaluate.
A specific job
The launch should name the task it removes or improves, not describe a broad category. Specific products are easier to compare.
An honest limit
We trust launches that say who the product is not for. That is more useful than a feature list with no trade-offs.
