Open source software I use

I’ve chosen some open source software to use daily. Besides being open source, I’ve some more criteria :

• They should run on Windows and Linux, and sometimes Android
• Or it should be a web application, with a nice interface on mobile
• Or it is used to bridge the gap between different systems

Recently I’ve included a new criteria, about data and configuration accessibility : they should be shared between devices.

Multi-systems applications

• VLC
• Firefox
• Libre Office
• Gimp
• FreeFileSync
• Games : OpenTTD, MAME, DosBox, FreeCiv
• Development : Python, Subversion, Scite, MySQL, Apache, KDiff3
• VirtualBox

Web applications

• TT-RSS, with mobile application
• Pydio, with mobile application
• Trac
• WordPress 🙂
• PHPMyAdmin

Bridges between systems

• Samba
• Putty, Mintty
• Cygwin
• WinSCP

Cloud services

These applications are so powerful, I don’t know how I could set up a system to replace them, let alone maintain it in the long run.

Shared data and/or configuration
