Emerging

This project is a curated catalog of open-source software and resources specifically designed to support languages that are endangered, minority, or have limited digital presence. It helps linguists, anthropologists, community advocates, and language technologists find tools for tasks like creating dictionaries, developing speech recognition, or preserving audio recordings. The input is a problem or need related to a low-resource language, and the output is a list of relevant open-source solutions.

438 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you are working to document, conserve, develop, or revitalize a language with scarce digital resources and need to discover existing open-source tools.

Not ideal if you need an exhaustive, in-depth catalog of all resources for a single specific language or if you are looking for tools for widely-resourced languages like English or Spanish.
