# aiarabicdev

> The curated directory of open source tools for people who build with AI. 47 entries across 8 categories, each read before listing and each stating its own drawbacks.

This is a free, hand written directory. There are no affiliate links, no sponsored placements, no invented ratings and no user accounts. Every HTML page has a markdown twin at the same URL with a .md suffix.

## How to read this site

- Full text of every entry: https://aiarabicdev.com/llms-full.txt
- The whole directory as JSON: https://aiarabicdev.com/resources.json
- Any page as markdown: append .md to its path, for example https://aiarabicdev.com/ai-agents/hermes.md

## Landing page templates

Open source hero sections, pricing blocks and complete marketing pages. Everything here is code you paste into your own project, not a hosted page builder you rent.

Hub: https://aiarabicdev.com/landing-pages (markdown: https://aiarabicdev.com/landing-pages.md)

## UI component libraries

Component libraries and primitive sets for React and the wider web. Split by the decision that actually matters: do you want components you own, or a dependency you upgrade.

Hub: https://aiarabicdev.com/ui-components (markdown: https://aiarabicdev.com/ui-components.md)

- [shadcn/ui](https://aiarabicdev.com/ui-components/shadcn-ui): Components you copy into your repository and then own outright Licence MIT, free and open source.

## AI agents you can run

Agents you install and use: a personal assistant that lives on your machine, and coding agents that work in your terminal. These are applications rather than libraries, so the question is which one to run, not which one to write against.

Hub: https://aiarabicdev.com/ai-agents (markdown: https://aiarabicdev.com/ai-agents.md)

## Self hosted AI workspaces

Open source applications that replace a paid AI subscription with something you host: chat front ends, document assistants and image and video studios. You still pay for model usage, but the interface, the history and the data stay yours.

## MCP servers

Model Context Protocol servers that let an agent drive a browser, query a database, read a repository or fetch live documentation. Each entry says what the server can touch and what it cannot.

## Design systems and tokens

Published design systems, token sets and the documentation behind them. Read these when you need a defensible reason for a spacing scale rather than another component to install.
