Field notes
The directory records license, hardware, supported document types, offline status, stars, and last commit for its entries. DGX Spark support is separately marked as reported working, known issues, or unknown. Difficulty is mapped to desktop app, server/Docker, or developer library, and filtered views can be shared by URL. The site also offers setup recipes and invites submissions, saying listings are free and reviewed weekly.
