# alternative-front-ends
Overview of alternative open source front-ends for popular internet platforms (e.g. YouTube, Twitter, etc.)
## Call to Action
- Do you know any other **free/open-source** projects that are not included in the overview yet? (front ends, alternatives to websites, apps, etc.)
- Just create an [issue](https://github.com/mendel5/alternative-front-ends/issues) and let me know. I'm always looking for new free/open-source projects to add.

## About this repository
This overview originally included three alternative front-ends: Invidious (for YouTube), Bibliogram (for Instagram) and Nitter (for Twitter). Therefore it was named `alternative front-ends`. As more projects have been added to the repository, the listed projects partially left the scope of *alternative front-ends*.
