# Forkshelf

> Forkshelf is a directory of software you can run on your own server, in place of the hosted products a small team pays for. Star counts, licenses, and last commit dates are read from the public GitHub API. Only an OSI-approved SPDX license counts as open source.

Forkshelf does not rank by payment.
