Collector's note

The badge is a self-declaration by the project, so it sits with product descriptions (1.4) and not with a tool that reads the code.

Every quote is verbatim from a stored capture of the page linked under it. Placement is our reading of the product's own documentation; no publisher has reviewed or endorsed it. Rows CC BY 4.0. Names, marks and logos belong to their owners; logos identify each product and are not part of the dataset.
