APIEvolved uses a number of open source projects to work properly:

• Express - serving the API calls
• ArkData - Parsing Tribe / Player data.
• edge - interface C# with ArkData.
• GameDig - doing parts of the Queries.
• cron - Scheduled jobs
• ini - reading the Game Configuration files
• simple-rcon - rcon protocol (skibz/prestonp fork)
• portscanner - used to check rcon protocol port.
• moment - for dates
• socket.io - real-time chat log
• request - used to call ARK.Bar API
• winston - logging

And of course APIEvolved itself is open source with a public repository on GitHub.
