About qwyd

qwyd is an index of free, open-source alternatives to paid software. The data comes from public GitHub repositories and is refreshed automatically every day.

What gets listed

• Projects with public source code and a declared license.
• Original implementations that recreate features and UI, not third-party code.

What doesn't

• Cracked software, leaked code or copies of proprietary files.
• Cheats for online games or tools that bypass payments.
• Anything with malware or suspicious behavior.

Trademarks

Names like Photoshop, Excel and CapCut belong to their owners and appear here only to identify what each project replaces. qwyd is not affiliated with those companies.

Takedowns

qwyd doesn't host files; it only links to official repositories. If you own a project or rights and want something removed or corrected, open a request. We respond within 48 hours.
