Open Source Software

Creating Open Source and supporting the community is a fundamental principle at JHB Software.

Open Source as a principle

Creating Open Source software and supporting the community is not a secondary thought for us, but a fundamental principle at JHB Software. We believe that better software arises through open exchange and collaboration – and we want to actively contribute to that.

Sharing knowledge

We develop Open Source software and make it freely available to the developer community. The open exchange of knowledge and solutions is important to us.

Supporting the community

We actively engage in the Open Source community, answer questions, take in issues, and appreciate every contribution from the community.

Quality through openness

Public code and community reviews lead to better, more robust software. We value transparency and external contributions as important quality factors.

Our Open Source projects

All our Open Source projects are available on GitHub.
