The Standard for Public Code is a set of criteria that supports public organizations in developing and maintaining software and policy together.
The Standard for Public Code provides guidance to public organizations seeking to successfully collaborate on open source solutions with similar organizations in other places.
You can find the latest version of thestandard on our website, download it as a pdf, and access community tips and resources about how to implement it.
The Standard for Public Code is in English, and is currently translated into Danish, Dutch, Spanish, and Traditional Chinese (Taiwan).
The Standard for Public Code is community governed.
Join our community calls on the last Thursday of each month, at 15.00 CET/CEST.

We're currently not aware of any codebases that meet all of the criteria of the Standard for Public Code.
The following codebases have made a public commitment to meet the Standard for Public Code:
- Algoritmeregister standard
- DataDiode
- Governance game
- Jitsi-Outlook
- Omgevingsbeleid FrontEnd
- Open Source Project Template
- OpenForms
- OpenZaak
- Signalen BackEnd
- Standard for Public Code (the Standard for Public Code community aims for the Standard itself to be as compliant as possible)
We'd like to hear from you if your organization is using the Standard. Please create a PR if your organization should be on this list, or start a discussion or join a community call.
