## What it is
A curated meta-list of best-of lists aggregating awesome open-source projects across topics like machine learning, web development, and blockchain, ranked by an automatically computed project-quality score. It also serves as a template for creating your own best-of list from a projects.yaml file.

## Use cases
- find the best open-source projects on a topic
- discover curated awesome lists ranked by quality
- create my own best-of list for a category
- compare open-source projects by quality score
- find trending open-source libraries

## When to choose
- you want a quality-ranked starting point for exploring open-source projects
- you want to publish your own curated list with automatic scoring and badges

## When to avoid
- you need a software tool or library rather than a curated list
- you need in-depth reviews or benchmarks rather than metric-based rankings

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource

- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: awesome-lists, developer-tools
