Sonar • Open Source

The open source behind secure, high‑quality code.

Every Sonar project released under the GPL and LGPL: the SonarQube Server core, scanners, IDE clients, CI/CD integrations, the plugin API, and the tooling we build in the open. Backed by Sonar's Open Core commitment, freely available for everyone.

Developers are the heart of Sonar. These projects integrate with, extend, or are part of the SonarQube ecosystem — part of our commitment to open source and the continuous improvement it drives. Looking for the language analyzers, MCP server, and AI-era tooling? Those ship under the Sonar Source-Available License (SSAL) and are listed separately on the source-available projects page.

Continuous improvement through open source

Sonar's pillars of open source

Our open source work is the basis of the analyzers that power every Sonar product. It's how we partner with the community, and how we keep code quality and security within reach of every developer. Backed by our Open Core commitment, Sonar solutions are freely available for everyone.

01

Value

Our open source offerings are the basis of the powerful analyzers that feed every Sonar product.

02

Community

Working together and challenging one another lends to stronger products. The more we challenge one another, the stronger they become.

03

Productivity

We support independent developers and small teams alongside the largest enterprises, with tools that are free to adopt.
