Open source software I use
Category : Non classé
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.
