alternative-front-ends

Overview of alternative open source front-ends for popular internet platforms.

Info

• Do you know any other projects about front ends or alternatives to websites, apps, etc. that are not included in the overview yet?
• Just create an issue and let me know. I'm always looking for new projects to add.

• Invuedious (another beautiful front-end for Invidious, built with Vue.js)
• straw-viewer (a fork of, and created by the same author of, youtube-viewer. Uses Invidious API)
• invidious-viewer (similar to straw-viewer. Requires MPV player and libmpv.so, provided by Linux distro)
• Top of Reddit (like HNTopLinks but for Reddit)
