We all love open-source software, but there are so many amazing projects out there that often go unnoticed. Let’s change that! Share your favorite open-source software that you think more people should know about. Here’s how you can contribute:
- Single Option Per Comment: Mention one open-source software per comment to be able to easily find the most popular software.
- No Duplicates: Avoid duplicating software that has already been mentioned to ensure a wide variety of options.
- Upvote What You Love: If you see a software that you also appreciate, upvote it to help others discover it more easily.

Let’s create a comprehensive list of open-source software that everyone should know about!
OliveTin, gives you a clean web UI for pre-defined shell scripts, with a dynamically reloadable YAML configuration.
There are a ton of things you could use it for, but I use it for container and system updates. A pre-processor runs on a schedule and collects a list of all containers and systems on my network that have available updates, and generates the OliveTin YAML config with a button for each. Loading up the OliveTin webUI in a browser and clicking the corresponding button installs the update and cycles the container or reboots the host as needed. It makes it trivially easy to see which systems need updating at a glance, and to apply those updates from any machine on my network with a web browser, including my phone or tablet.
