OASIS Open Projects

Internationally recognized and respected for its work across ICT standards, OASIS now supports open source projects who want to work on multiple kinds of deliverables under one organizational umbrella. The open source program at OASIS is a leader among international standards developing organizations, particularly in the Ethereum/cryptotechnology and cybersecurity spaces.

OpenJS Foundation

OpenJS Foundation is building a cross-project community space for JavaScript developers, regardless of their preferred library or code editor. We support more than 35 open source JavaScript projects with support and benefit programs, content development, infrastructure, and more. We've also recently launched an Individual Supporter Program called JavaScriptLandia which will offer more opportunities to connect with favorite communities and tools.
