Haiku in http://alternativeto.net

Forum thread started by dzaragoza on Wed, 2013-05-22 02:12

Hello

I've been adding applications that run in Haiku to http://alternativeto.net

I think it is interesting to know alternative to applications in Windows/Linux that run in Haiku, to increase ease of use.

The list of applications tagged as available for Haiku are here: http://alternativeto.net/?platform=haiku most of them added by myself :)

It will be nice if anyone wish to add other applications to the list, lets make Haiku more visible!

Regards

Cool! This topic is being really useful, I discovered a lot of new and useful applications, most of them are more impressive than I thought possible in the current state of Haiku. Also added most of them to alternativeto.net.

Keep the suggestions coming!
