Open-source startups in Developer tools

Editors, coding agents, CI/CD, API clients and terminals: software for the people who write software. 87 open-source startups in this directory are filed under Developer tools. 54 pushed code within 30 days of the snapshot of 2026-09-22, 7 have been quiet for 31โ€“120 days, 26 have not pushed in over 120 days. The category is chosen by Jev, TypeSafeโ€™s classifier, reading only the repositoryโ€™s own name, description and homepage โ€” one category per project, so something that spans two appears under whichever the classifier judged closest.

54 of 87 pushed within 30 days of the snapshot of 2026-09-22. How we measure it โ†’

The list

All 87, most-starred first.

The whole directory by ship status โ†’

The last column is the most recent push GitHub reported to us on 2026-09-22. It counts a push to any branch, by a person or a bot โ€” it is not a claim that anyone is maintaining the project, and a quiet repository may be a finished one. The โ€œbuilt forโ€ column and the โ€œalternative toโ€ chips are Jevโ€™s answers about the same repository description, published with the rest of them.
