This repository is an "awesome list" curated by the Green Software Foundation, serving as a directory for developers, organizations, and enthusiasts seeking tools, code, libraries, and training resources to build applications that reduce carbon emissions. It aims to foster a trusted ecosystem for sustainable software development practices.

How It Works

The project functions as a curated directory, leveraging Algolia for robust search capabilities and Notion for content management. This combination allows for efficient discovery and contribution of green software solutions. The frontend is built with Astro and Tailwind CSS, providing a modern, responsive user interface.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install: npm install
• Run: npm run dev
• Prerequisites: Node.js
• Configuration: Requires environment variables for Algolia (APP_ID, ADMIN_API_KEY, SEARCH_KEY) and Notion (API_KEY, DATABASE_ID).
• Syncing: npm run sync-notion to sync Notion data to Algolia.
• Contribution: Via a website form, subject to review.
• Docs: Contribution Guidelines
