fixinventory VS linguist

The reasoning is explained in the very section of our Github org README you quoted this sentence from. Our main open source project is Fix Inventory (https://github.com/someengineering/fixinventory) and that is very well documented (https://inventory.fix.security) and uses no commercial 3rd party libraries.

The Fix SaaS frontend that you're referring to and that you find at https://fix.security builds upon Fix Inventory. We could have just made it closed-source like every other SaaS (think Grafana Cloud). But because I'm a big proponent of OSS we decided to open source our entire SaaS stack, frontend, backend as well as all internal tooling. The main intend here is transparency, not so you spin up your own SaaS environment.

Essentially we develop the SaaS for ourselves first and foremost, but saw no reason to make it closed source. So that is why it might be using any number of commercial 3rd party add-ons.

> I'm curious to know what Material UI provided that any other open-source UI library did not.

I believe it was some MUI X table features like multi row sorting that we didn't feel like re-implementing. I'm sure there's other open source libs that would do that, but we've settled on MUI and are not going to start mixing different UI libraries for different visual elements if we don't absolutely have to.

It is a good time for send the showreel of serious apps in Godot:

Resoto: https://resoto.com/

It is a sub-project of our cloud resource management tool Resoto but runs standalone and stateless. It's meant for easy integration into your own data pipelines.

I dunno if this interests you, but you actually have influence over the formatting of https://github.com/someengineering/fix-cf/blob/main/fix-role... via .gitattributes communicating to GH that it's actually yaml: https://github.com/github-linguist/linguist/blob/master/docs...

There’s already a draft pr for this: https://github.com/github-linguist/linguist/pull/6686

GitHub uses Linguist to

I have found that: https://github.com/github-linguist/linguist/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md, but I'm also currently not at home, so I will check it out later.

Another option is to use Linguist which is what GitHub uses (I use linguist via .gitattributes files for all of my code projects). It is community driven and supports essentially every language possible: see languages.yml.

Once you selected a topic you can further filter the projects by language. This means programming language as recognized by the linguist tool of GitHub. See what they say about repository languages

As I later found out, GitHub uses the Linguist library to measure the amount of lines written in a specific language... which is still pretty magic 🪄.
