Freecode, formerly Freshmeat, was a website owned by BIZX, Inc., hosting mainly open-source software for programmers and developers. Among other things, the site also hosted user reviews and discussions. While a majority of the software covered is open source for Unix-like systems, Freecode also covered releases of closed-source, commercial and cross-platform software on and handhelds. Freecode was notable for its age, having started in 1997 as the first web-based aggregator of software releases.

Freecode (bis Oktober 2011 Freshmeat genannt) war ein Onlinedienst für die Anwendungsentwicklung und nach eigenen Angaben das größte Verzeichnis des weltweiten Netzes (englisch Web) bevorzugt im Bereich Unix und plattformübergreifende Anwendungen. Der Dienst wurde von einer Netzgemeinschaft bewertet, betreut, überarbeitet und erweitert. Am 18. Juni 2014 stellte der Betreiber die aktive Arbeit an der Website ein. Die vorhandenen Inhalte sollen in statischer Form verfügbar bleiben.
