OpenAlex is an open, comprehensive catalog of scholarship, connecting papers, authors, institutions, and journals.
Because we think all research should be free and open, OpenAlex is free and open itself, and we're built on a fully Open Source codebase.
Below is a list of the open-source code used to build, deploy, and document OpenAlex:
- openalex-guts: The guts for computing data for OpenAlex
- openalex-elastic-api: All the OpenAlex API endpoints that are backed by Elasticsearch
- openalex-docs: The GitBook documentation site for OpenAlex
- openalex-website: Website for OpenAlex.org
- openalex-api-tutorials: A collection of Jupyter notebooks, each walking you through a common example of bibliometric analysis using scholarly data from the OpenAlex API
- openalex-ngrams-api: API for ngrams available through OpenAlex
- openalex-elasticsearch: Code and templates for setting up the Elasticsearch backend for the slice-and-dice API
