Puter published a GitHub repository named Everything that it describes as a monorepo of free, MIT-licensed web applications meant as open-source alternatives to proprietary software1.
The README, posted on the HeyPuter account, says the project is rebuilding software from scratch, naming categories that include office suites, chat, photo editing and CAD-class tools1.
Listed apps include Spreadsheet, Documents and Presentation, each with a puter.com demo URL and a source folder in the same repository, according to the README1.
Collaboration entries include Meetings, Teamchat, Email, Contacts, Calendar and Signatures, with similar demo and source links1.
Creative listings include Photo Studio, Video Studio, Vector Studio, Audio Studio, Music Studio and 3D Studio, which the README presents as alternatives to products such as Photoshop, Premiere and Maya1.
The getting-started section says developers need Node.js 22.12 or newer, then clone the repo, install and run a given app under src/[app-name]1.
The license section says the repository, including sub-projects, is MIT-licensed unless stated otherwise, and that third-party libraries may carry their own licenses1.
Independent reporting on the project's completeness, funding or whether the demos match the named commercial products was not in the assignment sources1.
