Awesome Plan9

A curated list of awesome Plan9 (and sometimes 9p) libraries and software.

Generally when referring to "Plan9" this document really means 9front.

9p.io links are accessible over 9p as well. On 9front you can run 9fs 9pio as a shortcut.

Many of the applications listed here are available under the 9front ports tree.
