List of Bluesky services and applications

Last updated

This is a list of notable Bluesky services and applications. Bluesky is decentralized [1] (built on the AT Protocol, [2] which is open-source [3] ) and open-sources the API it uses for its own mobile and web apps. [4] This, combined with the fact that the API is significantly documented, [5] has led to a vast amount of third-party services and applications being developed for Bluesky in a very short time; many of these are highly notable. [6]

Applications being developed include clients, where you can view feeds and interact with posts (called skeets [7] ), custom feeds, bots, starter packs, and verifiers. You can find a comprehensive list of Bluesky services and applications at the Bluesky Directory.
