Meet Libraries.io, the free search engine scripts open source for developers.
There are millions of open source scripts on the internet with a daily rate of increase. They are the most valuable out-of-the-box solution for developers as pieces of code in their own applications, since as open source they ensure their purity from malware.
However, if you want a search engine that will help you find through these millions of scripts what interests you, we suggest you Libraries.io. This is a free online search engine with one 1,8 database of millions of open source scripts. You can find material for the most popular programs such as NPM, bower, Packagist and a great list of WordPress plugins.
The engine has at your disposal various classifications of scripts, for example based on a specific package manager, a programming language, according to the open source license or by certain words-wrenches. For example, you can filter all MIT-licensed scripts, or you can search for the best packages for JavaScript.
You can even combine two filters, for example to search for JS packages that are under the MIT license. The possibilities they are almost endless.
Once you find something you like, you can get more information about it from the library page. You can also subscribe via GitHub to see a historical view from the beginning of the script's existence to the present version.
If you are a developer, you can also download data directly from API Libraries. You can log in to the site with a GitHub account, get your API key, and then you can build your own webapp powered by Libraries.io.
Good search!!!!
