in plain english

This is a curated directory of open-source algorithmic trading tools, ranked by an automated quality score based on GitHub activity and other public signals. Algorithmic trading means using software to execute trades automatically according to predefined rules or strategies, rather than clicking buy and sell manually. The list covers 109 projects across 7 categories: trading bots and frameworks, libraries and APIs for connecting to exchanges, technical analysis and indicator tools, books, YouTube channels, courses, and communities. Each entry shows the project's star count, language, license, and activity status so you can quickly spot which projects are actively maintained versus abandoned. You would use this as a starting point when researching open-source trading tools. For example, if you want to build a crypto trading bot, you could browse the bots and frameworks category to compare well-known options side by side. If you want to backtest a strategy against historical data, the backtesting tools section is there. The list covers projects written in Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Rust, Go, Java, C++, and other languages. It is updated on a regular schedule and accepts contributions via pull requests if you want to suggest a project that belongs on it.
