The AboutCode community designs, develops, and sustains an open source
4+
ecosystem of interoperable tools, accurate data, and practical standards to
5+
enable organizations of any size to identify open source or other third-party
6+
software, automate license compliance, and improve software supply chain
7+
security. AboutCode software and data can provide a comprehensive solution for some organizations, or an organization can reuse AboutCode "building blocks"
8+
in their own systems and workflows.
9+
10+
The purpose of this Getting Started section is to help you understand what software or data AboutCode projects provide so that you can determine how to
11+
best use them to meet your requirements for software identification, license
12+
compliance and supply chain security. Our approach is to describe common use cases and show you how specific AboutCode capabilities apply to those use
13+
cases.
14+
15+
The use cases are grouped according to 3 major topics:
16+
- Software identification
17+
- License compliance
18+
- Supply chain security
19+
20+
If you already know which AboutCode projects you are interested in you can
21+
find project information in the **AboutCode Projects Overview** section of the
22+
home page of this website. Each project card provides comprehensive project
23+
information including:
24+
- Description
25+
- Documentation URL
26+
- GitHub Repository URL
27+
- Licenses for software, data and services as applicable
28+
- Primary language
29+
- Platform
30+
31+
The projects are presented in 5 categories:
32+
- Applications: These projects offer an application that you can install in the cloud or a local environment.
33+
- ScanCode: These projects are components or extensions of ScanCode.
34+
- Package-URL: These projects provide tools and data to support the use of the PURL (Package-URL) or VERS (Version Range Specifier) specifications.
35+
- Inspectors: AboutCode Inspectors are special-purpose analysis tools. You can run them as a ScanCode Toolkit plugin, as steps in a ScanCode.io pipeline, or from the command line.
36+
- Libraries: AboutCode libraries are key building blocks for the AboutCode software and data stack - they have also been incorporated into other major
37+
FOSS projects and are available for use by anyone.
38+
39+
If you questions about how to apply AboutCode building blocks to your requirements please join one of our community meetings or on Gitter or Slack.
40+
See our [Meetings page](https://aboutcode-org.github.io/www.aboutcode.org/docs/about/about-meetings) for details.
