Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
This repository is a manually curated list of 100 free websites that the author considers genuinely useful. The list covers a wide range of categories: media and streaming tools, image and design utilities, PDF editors, free book libraries, learning platforms, developer tools, writing aids, privacy tools, finance resources, and more. Every link has been verified to point to the real site, and each entry comes with a short honest review. The author flags tools that are freemium (free to start but with paid upgrades) and those that sit in legally grey territory, such as sites that index copyrighted books or bypass paywalls. That transparency is a deliberate feature of the list, not an oversight. You know upfront what you are getting into before clicking. The categories span a lot of ground. On the creative side you get browser-based alternatives to Photoshop, audio editors that need no installation, and free stock photo collections. On the productivity side there are PDF toolkits, screen-recording utilities, and writing tools. For learning, the list points to well-known platforms like Khan Academy and freeCodeCamp alongside lesser-known gems. Developers get a section of their own covering regex testers, shell-command explainers, and SQL playgrounds. The repository itself contains a shell script alongside the README, though the list is the primary deliverable. The README is the actual product: a long, well-organized document you can read top to bottom or search for a specific category. There is no app to install, no service to sign up for, and no account required. It is a reference document you can bookmark, fork, or contribute to. If you are looking for a specific type of free tool and do not know where to start, this list is a reasonable first stop. It is opinionated in a useful way, telling you when a free tier has real limits rather than just listing URLs.
