Welcome to Skysoft!

Welcome to Skysoft, the user-supported astronomical software database.

Skysoft is a YAASD (Yet Another Astronomical Software Directory), but with a different overall approach. Our choice is to design this site as a community supported directory. The idea is that content remains timely because of frequent user interaction. Users and developers are invited to contribute with software news, user's views, comments and bugs notifications, and general astronomical news. This site is designed so that software developers acquire more visibility because of astronomical context. Developers can post a brief description of their product, with the classification which can ease the search and retrieval of software projects.

Our goal is to be useful to both end-users and developers. We host all software kinds, from general data reduction packages, to specialized libraries, to small specific tools.

Help us to help you: register your software, share your experiences and views!
