The idea is to create a website that shows great things in OpenBSD to people interested in using it.

I have personally been using OpenBSD since 2012. Every now and then (at conferences, the office, the local hackerspace) people are asking:

“You are using OpenBSD? Why?”

There are a bazillion things that are great about OpenBSD. The people, the philosophy and the technology.

Everyone is free to create a PR and this project relies on help! I'm not an expert on everything and facts may be missing, have typos or are wrong.
