  • opensource.microsoft.com

    This is the source code to the Microsoft Open Source site featuring projects, program information, and "get involved" pages. This site is published at opensource.microsoft.com and managed by the Microsoft Open Source Programs Office (OSPO).

  • Microsoft themselves is one of the biggest open source contributors in the world. They've moved big projects like PowerShell to be completely open source. They even own GitHub and are one of the top Linux contributors. https://opensource.microsoft.com

  • darwin-xnu

    Discontinued Legacy mirror of Darwin Kernel. Replaced by https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/xnu

  • Even the walled garden of Apple is full of open source contributions (https://opensource.apple.com). Darwin, at the core of all their major products, has been open source for 20 years. They have 151 open source projects on GitHub.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • apparmor-profile-everything

    Discontinued deprecated - maybe replaced by: `apparmor.d`

  • Funny enough, the one the author contributes to. That's the idea behind apparmor-profile-everything and sandbox-app-launcher on Whonix and KickSecure, as far as I know (https://github.com/Whonix/apparmor-profile-everything and https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Sandbox-app-launcher )
