Methodology
- Stars and last-commit dates come from the GitHub API (latest commit on the default branch). Snapshot: 2026-10-18. Licence is as published in each repository.
- Closed-source tools have no public repository, so stars and commit dates are blank. Their pricing is summarised from the official site; always check the current terms.
- Freshness: Active <30 days, Recent <6 months, Stale older than 6 months. Archived repositories are flagged regardless of date.
- Overviews are short editorial summaries, not legal advice.
