## Guideline to contribute
> Simply put the name of the **application** in the list.
> Link to its **homepage** or a **guide** on how to install it.
> Also write a **short description** for the application + add **icon**.
> Make sure it is put under the **appropriate topic**.
> If the application doesn't fit in any **existing topic**, make a **new one** for it.
> Ensure everything is **alphabetically sorted**.
*Items marked with ![Open-Source Software][OSS Icon] are open-source software and link to the source code. Items marked with ![Freeware][Freeware Icon] are free (as in free beer).*
<br>
*Author's note: Recently, I received feedbacks from you about the quality of some applications on this list. I myself tested them out a lot (not all of them, though). If you have any problems with the apps, please: -> head to the dev page (if available) -> make an issue for the dev there -> make an issue here so that I can consider whether I should get the app out of the list. Remember : Everything has its own quality, so there will never be anything like "best app" or "selective list" here, thank you.*
