Curated Open-Source Directory of 50+ Startup Resources & Grants for Indian Builders

Description and use

The project offers a continuously updated open-source directory of over 50 Indian startup resources, including grants, VCs, incubators, and free cloud credits, with automated link checking via GitHub Actions.

Problem

Finding up-to-date grants, VCs, incubators, and free cloud credits for Indian startups is difficult due to outdated links and fragmented information.

Outcome

The project provides a continuously updated, open-source directory of over 50 startup resources, ensuring founders have reliable access to grants, VCs, incubators, and tech credits.

Workflow

• Create a markdown file listing resources with URLs.
• Add the list to a GitHub repository.
• Set up a GitHub Actions workflow using lychee to check all URLs weekly.
• Configure the workflow to run on a schedule (e.g., every week).
• When a link fails, the action reports the broken URL for maintenance.
• Contributors can submit PRs to add or update resources.
• Users can browse the live dashboard or clone the repo for offline use.

Evidence

Awesome lists often decay over time. To ensure that every single URL remains active, this repository includes a GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow powered by lychee.
