The Awesome Lists

The Awesome Lists on GitHub.

I’m not entirely sure how they started or where it began, but these lists have been around for a while now on GitHub. If you want to know about REST API frameworks in Python, or what free/OSS people are using for self-hosting a variety of things… well, chances are you can find it in these lists. The main list above acts as an index to all of the other more specific lists or individual resources.

These lists can be a fantastic way to find resources, references, or software related to a topic you are interested in or are learning. There is even an Awesome List Search Tool that someone made to help locate what you’re looking for in the lists.

Some of the lists I have found useful in particular are:

• Awesome Python

• Awesome C

• Awesome C++

• Awesome Go

• Awesome Raspberry Pi

• Awesome Self-Hosted
