This page is formerly known as "Timur Tabi's Programming Links", from the old EDM/2 web site. The contents below are copied as-is and have seen only limited updates.

Most of the links are to OS/2-specific sources of information, however links to generic (i.e. not platform-specific) sources are sometimes included for completeness.

Conferences, seminars and user groups

Want to meet other OS/2 and eComstation users and developers?

Project and source hosting

Websites that provide a range of support options for OS/2 developers

  • Netlabs - A repository for OS/2 open-source projects - Free
  • SourceForge - The oldest and most flexible of the free source/project sites.
  • GitHub - Source code repository and version control - Free for open source projects
  • Codeplex - Microsoft's alternative, good but not flexible about licenses - Free
  • Gitorius - Less popular alternative to GitHub - Free for open source projects
  • Bitbucket - Offers both free and paid project hosting - not as flexible as some of the others.
  • Code Base - Project hosting - Not free but inexpensive and has more features than most free alternatives.
  • Launchpad - Project hosting - Primarily intended for open source projects.
  • Google Code hosting - Reliable but has been shedding features lately
  • Jira - Paid for only
  • Unfuddle - Paid for project hosting
