Codehaus

Codehaus was an open-source community and platform focused on developing and sharing software tools and libraries, primarily in Java. It facilitated collaboration among developers by hosting projects, offering resources, and promoting best practices for building reliable, reusable code. By providing a common space for code hosting and community engagement, Codehaus helped accelerate software development and innovation, especially in the Java ecosystem. Although it was influential in the open-source world, it eventually closed in 2015, but it played a significant role in fostering open collaboration among software developers.
